The Little Way of The Englewood

This is a short story I created about a ultrasound tech giving an ultrasound to a pregnant teenager and telling her stories about the saints to give her hope. It also has some gritty vibes and Hunger games references.Hell is a teenage girl... with a positive pregnancy test.Kenzie B. isn't just in a crisis; she’s vibrating at a frequency that could shatter Pyrex. Sitting in the waiting room of Bella Health, she feels like the protagonist of a tragedy she didn’t write—a "disposal problem" in vintage denim who just swallowed a hand grenade. She’s waiting for the credits to roll on her life, convinced that her internal mayhem is a permanent condition.Enter Tara. She’s twenty-four, fueled by iced matcha, and wearing navy blue FIGS that fit less like a uniform and more like athleisure for the clinically cynical. Tara isn’t interested in being the hero. She knows she’s just the Guide—a spiritual Haymitch Abernathy in scrubs, here to help Kenzie survive the Quarter Quell of young adulthood.In this audio drama, we ditch the Hallmark platitudes for a "river-crossing" plan that actually works. Watch as Tara performs an exorcism not on a demon, but on the crushing weight of shame, using the only weapons that work in the Englewood suburbs: "gangster fortitude" and the Communion of Saints.Tune in to hear:​The Original Final Girls: Why St. Maria Goretti isn't a victim, but the ultimate "Final Girl" who faced down a guy with a knife and won the spiritual war.​Micro-Dosing Holiness: How St. Thérèse of Lisieux’s "Little Way" proves you don't need to be Joan of Arc leading armies; you just need to survive the next five minutes with massive amounts of love.​Beauty in the Thorns: A lesson from St. Rose of Lima on why the "happily ever after" sometimes involves embracing the thorns to find the bloom.This isn't your grandmother's devotional.
