In this episode, Rachael is joined once again by Mary Jo Carney to talk about the fear that our past with addiction can 'ruin' God's plan for our vocations. We learn about the universality of sin and how it can strike anyone at any point in their vocation. Is your vocation meant to be a place of fear and shame? Does God want you to be happy on this earth? All this and how God's love counters all in this week's conversation.

In this week's episode, Rachael is joined by Mary Jo Carney to discuss the often-overlooked aspects of women's health, both as they pertain to sexual addiction and femininity as a whole. We learn to look beyond the 'band-aid' solutions normalized in women's health, correlations between arousal and the menstrual cycle, and fertility awareness. Also, why is it called 'matrimony' and how learning about your health before married life can help!
