Episode Topic: Catholicism and Feminism Roundtable (https://go.nd.edu/176fb3)

In a culture increasingly defined by ideological silos and digital fragmentation, the search for a coherent identity can leave women feeling isolated. We invite you to a space of deep encounter and vital conversation that addresses the core longing for community and truth. Here, the ancient wisdom of the Church meets the complexities of modern life with intellectual rigor and pastoral warmth. Experience a radical, pro-woman vision rooted in faith, and joyful alternative to modern gender theory.
