Welcome to my channel, where we explore a practical, spiritual approach to a more meaningful life. Everyone, no matter what religion (or lack thereof), has a spiritual journey to embark on, and my channel is here to provide guidance, hope, encouragement and inspiration along the way. As a Christian, I often speak from this perspective, but with a respectful and open-minded approach that also draws from various other spiritual and inspirational sources. Join me as I share insights and tools to help you cultivate a deeper, more fulfilling relationship with yourself, others, and the Divine!
Even though St. Lucy lived so long ago that there is little known about her, it is extraordinary that she has remained a beloved and venerated figure in Christianity for over 1700 years. In this episode, I share my personal story of how St. Lucy saved me from blindness, and explore what we know about this third-century virgin and martyr, and how she is celebrated around the world today.

Catherine Laboure: Saint of the Miraculous Medal - Part 2
Although most Catholics, and some non-Catholics, are familiar with the Miraculous Medal and its origin, few know much about St. Catherine Laboure, the woman to whom the medal was first revealed by the Blessed Virgin Mary. In this two-part series, we'll explore the fascinating character and life of this 19th-century visionary.
I have always had a particular interest in and devotion to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, having attended church and school as a child in the parish of that name (nicknamed "OLMM") in Ridgewood, NY. I now live near Philadelphia, where the Shrine of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal has its home in Germantown. It seems that Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal is never far from me! Although I had learned the story of the Miraculous Medal as a child from the nuns who taught at OLMM school, I didn't know much beyond the basic facts about St. Catherine Laboure, to whom the medal was first manifested. Always fascinated by saints, mystics, and visionaries, I wanted to find out more about her, and that's how I came to create this series. I hope you find it interesting!
