It’s a wild concept, we know. You live this life and then you learn from it… SHOCKER. Lately Meghan and Courtney have shared some very niche life experiences and upon reflection they have been deeply convicted of the truth that you have to go out and actually LIVE this life in order to learn from it, let alone discern what God wants you to do with it.

This week Meghan and Courtney remind us all of the mega importance of two things: embracing God’s grace, and going on a retreat.

Girls let’s talk about humility for a second. It’s one of the most important virtues that we can have and yet it’s the one that we so easily avoid due to discomfort. Praying the Litany of Humility is scary, being prideful is easy, and our culture makes it so effortless to be arrogant in our daily decision making, so how can we stand out as bold Catholic women and go against the grain? That’s what Courtney and Meghan discuss this week—the how-to be humble guide on being a truly humb...
