On this week’s podcast (click here to listen or click on the player above), we celebrate the birth of Rachel’s new daughter, Isabel Annemarie Balducci with great joy.  This week’s show is also an in depth look at the wonderful new book Small Steps for Catholic Moms with co-authors Danielle Bean and Elizabeth Foss.  Circle Press is currently offering a special pre-order opportunity for us to save 20% and pre order this great book along with the accompanying Small Steps for Catholic Moms Companion JournalSimply click here and use promo code SSJ20 to be one of the first owners of this terrific new resource for moms.

During our chat, Danielle and Elizabeth share their inspiration behind the writing of this book as well as an inside look at how two busy homeschooling moms found the time to collaborate together on this project.  Listen in as they share what they mean by the term “small steps” and how the experience of writing this book together blessed their lives as moms and as friends. 

We also discuss how moms might come together in small prayer communities using Small Steps for Catholic Moms and the Companion Journal to support and encourage one another in living out lives of virtue.
