    Growing Up as a Black Catholic

    Today Margot is joined by her friend Julia who opens up about her unique experience of growing up as a black girl in the predominantly white, Catholic schools of Saint Louis. Julia shares the highs and lows of her childhood and how these shaped her into the woman today while giving insight on how we, as a Catholic community, can better promote diversity.

    Reclaiming Mary Magdalene

    In this episode Margot is joined by Lillian to unravel the persistent rumor that Mary Magdalene was a sex worker, and how this historical speculation has impacted perceptions of her within the Catholic Church. We delve into the roots of this rumor, and we examine how Mary Magdalene's story has resonated particularly within the LGBTQ+ community, making her an unofficial patron saint of acceptance and diversity.
