Faith, Business, and Social Media

from White Collars · host White Collars

In this episode of White Collars, Charles and Fr. Lomnitzer sit down with Grady Connolly—Catholic content creator, founder of The Social Thomist, and the mind behind the ambitious American Basilica Pilgrimage. Grady shares his journey from Maine to building a Catholic media agency working with priests, creators, and even exorcists. We talk mentorship, entrepreneurship, social media strategy, virtue-based leadership, and the tension between trends and the transcendent in the Church. From basilica pilgrimages and business risks to Catholic influencers, hiring with mission in mind, and evangelizing without rage-bait, this conversation dives deep into what it means to live—and build—faithfully in the modern world.
