#023- One of the questions that I get asked all the time is, “Why does it matter if my health coach is Catholic?”
In today’s episode, I’m going to answer that question and explain how "getting healthy" can actually lead to sanctity.
I talk about:

The importance of identifying your deep why
What sanctity is
How we grow in holiness
Which virtues you need to grow in in order to improve your health
How all of this relates to your unique call to sanctity

Thanks for listening!
