from Always A Raven Podcast · host Benedictine College
On this week’s episode of Always a Raven, host Janelle Menz sits down with Jill Simons, Benedictine College Class of 2010, for a conversation rooted in purpose, discernment, and the power of understanding how you’re uniquely wired. As the founder and executive director of Many Parts Ministries, Jill shares how her work centers on helping people uncover their charisms—specific gifts given to build and serve others in meaningful ways. Jill’s path to Benedictine was anything but conventional. Torn between pursuing musical theater and deepening her faith, she chose a place where she could fully wrestle with life’s biggest questions. That same curiosity carried through her time on campus—studying theology and English, performing in theater, studying abroad, and embracing a wide range of experiences that would later shape her work. After graduation, Jill’s entrepreneurial spirit led her to build multiple successful businesses before ultimately pivoting toward ministry. What began as a personal interest in charism discernment evolved into a calling—one that now helps individuals and organizations find clarity, purpose, and direction in both their personal and professional lives. At its core, this episode is about clarity, identity, and living with intention. Jill’s story is a reminder that when you understand the gifts you’ve been given, you can move through life with greater confidence, deeper purpose, and a clearer sense of how you’re meant to serve.
