Veil + Armour: Confident Catholic Women exploring Holiness in Motherhood and Daily Life

Veil + Armour: Confident Catholic Women exploring Holiness in Motherhood and Daily Life

Sheila Nonato

From former feminist to exploring the Catholic feminine genius.

Authentic conversations about faith, family and femininity.
Are you seeking a joyful, life-changing + Christ-centred vision of motherhood & femininity? Are you seeking authenticity, clarity, and confidence in your vocation as a Christian wife and mother, and seek to understand your husband's role and mission in the family, in his work, and in the world, and your divine calling as parents?
We will explore the Catholic Feminine Genius of women. Is popular culture the only lens within which we can view a woman's worth and purpose? The Catholic vision of motherhood and womanhood presents the "feminine genius," embodying the Christian virtues of service, sacrifice, and lasting joy and fulfillment in our God-given vocation as women, mothers, future mothers and spiritual mothers. We seek to bridge the gap between the understanding of women in the secular world vs. a countercultural Christian vision of a woman's role & power, rooted in the Bible and Church tradition, and to bridge the gap between Gen X, Millenial and Gen Y Catholics.
Veil + Armour is a Top 10 Motherhood & Catholic podcast via Goodpods' rankings charts. Thank you to our faithful listeners and subscribers! God bless!

Finding cultural common ground in pro-life issues
When you're navigating life's moral maelstroms, where do you find your anchor? This episode of Veil and Armor seeks to find the beacon in the fog, featuring Blaise Alleyne from the Canadian Centre for Bio-Ethical Reform. Together, we steer through the tumultuous topics of abortion, euthanasia, and Canada's medically assisted suicide program, also known as (MAID). Blaise higlights the importance of genuine conversation as a suicide prevention tool, sharing how we can tap into our innate regard for human equality and human dignity to show the rational argument of the pro-life stance to people who oppose it. Blaise talks about secular apologetics, where he explores a path that connects through shared values rather than religious rhetoric. It's a journey that promises hope and the ability to shift perspectives with empathy and sound reasoning. He also calls out able-ism, age-ism, and a privileged mindset that is often overlooked in the debate about Canada's Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) program.
Blaise's inspiration: His mother, Julia
Heartfelt stories often strike chords that reason alone cannot reach. In this broadcast, Blaise highlights his mother as his role model for sparking Blaise's inspiration in pro-life apologetics and his pro-life work. His mother, Julia, a sports physician, struggled through high-risk pregnancies. She was recommended abortion, however found a doctor who respected her pro-life conviction.
What is "Heart Apologetics"?
Visuals can disrupt the status quo, as Blaise's blue mohawk hairstyle proves, demonstrating the impact of individuality in serious discourse. This episode reveals that a touch of whimsy can disarm heated debates, allowing us to reconstruct bridges over ideological divides. We delve into "Heart Apologetics," a method of advocacy that is not merely about winning arguments, but about winning hearts. It's about listening with the intent to understand, expressing truths with compassion, and presenting an inspired and compassionate perspective on hot-button issues of our time.

Our next episode: Speaking coach Emanuela Hall teaches women to speak boldly and confidently
In the next episode, we will be speaking with Speaking Coach and Story Consultant Emanula Hall. The public speaking skills that Emanuela has mastered and is now teaching can sharpens one's skills for bold dialogue, and can encourage us to engage fearlessly with challenging topics. For all listeners, especially Catholic moms, this episode is an invitation to embrace bravery, boldness, and blessings as we continue our conversations and our vocation in motherhood with renewed hope, confidence and inspiration.

In Episode 6 of the Veil + Armour podcast, Sheila shares some insights she had gained from attending a recent silent retreat for women. She debunks her top three excuses for the necessity of an annual retreat: no time, no money, no need for it.
Sheila also shares a talk by her friend, Ina, during the retreat. A mother of six, Ina shared her reflection on Jesus' Parable of Salt and Light, and how we are being called to share the salt of our example, to share the flavour of the Gospel, through our words and in the example of our daily life. This doesn't mean, however, that we are perfect all the time. Ina shares that our imperfections can also draw people to our witness, to make us more relatable. Ina encouraged the women at the retreat to deepen their relationship with God, by knowing Him through Scripture, by reaching out to Our Blessed Mother through praying the Holy Rosary, and to seeking the guidance and inspiration of the Holy Spirit.
Sheila also discusses the link between a spiritual retreat and a spring cleaning of our souls. The season of spring is a season of renewal, just like a retreat can be a time of prayer, reflection and contemplation, which can lead to a renewal of faith, a rejuvenation of our soul, and a new perspective on our life's purpose.
There is also a discussion on cherry blossoms, which are in peak season in early Spring and a brief look at a book about faith and conversion in Japan through the experience of Opus Dei. Finally, Sheila links the theme of the book, "Holiness for Housewives and Other Working Women" to the theme of retreats, her friend, Ina's talk, cherry blossom season, and the book, "When the Cherry Trees Blossomed: The Expansion of Opus Dei in Japan." The overall theme has been an invitation and a call to develop a closer relationship with God, and to take steps towards experiencing a springtime of faith and spiritual renewal.

In honour of the month of the Most Holy Rosary, and the Feast Day of Our Lady of the Rosary on October 7, we present a series of episodes dedicated to Our Blessed Mother and the Holy Rosary.
The first in our special series is the powerful vocation story of Father Peter Turrone, the pastor of Holy Rosary Parish in the Archdiocese of Toronto.
Father Turrone is a former missionary with the Consolata MIssionaries in Mongolia. He was the pastor at the Newman Centre Student Catholic Chaplaincy at the University of Toronto for five years. He holds a Masters Degree and a Ph.D. in Medical Science and Neuroscience from the University of Toronto.
A former atheist, he shares his story of conversion after reading St. Augustine's "Confessions." Father Turrone also shares his experience as the Catechist for popular Canadian podcaster and cancer survivor, Mrs. Tammy Peterson.
Father Peter Turrone’s incredible journey from atheism to faith is a testament to the profound ways in which science and spirituality can intersect. With a rich background in neuroscience, Fr. Peter shares how his analytical mind found harmony with his spiritual calling, all sparked by a vivid dream of the Virgin Mary and his future mission work in Mongolia's Gobi Desert. As we unravel his story, we explore how personal tragedies can rock the foundation of our beliefs, yet also become the catalyst for rediscovering the grace and hope that faith offers. Through deep reflections and the transformative power of the Holy Spirit, Fater Turrone reveals the intricate balance between the hard questions of faith and the beauty of embracing divine mysteries.
Listeners will gain insight into the communal nature of faith, learning how relationships and mentorship can light the path towards a fulfilling spiritual life. From the stirring words of St. Augustine to the moving symbolism of the Easter vigil, Fr. Peter illustrates how ancient texts and traditions remain relevant in today's world. Through personal anecdotes and stories of others on their spiritual path, like Tammy's preparation to become a Catholic, the episode underscores the harmony between faith and reason. Witness how living in accordance with Christian values can be a beacon of hope in times of existential crisis, helping younger generations navigate the tumultuous waters of modern life.

Have you had a traumatic experience after giving birth? If yes, how did you heal from that experience?
Brigid Tebaldi shares her transformative journey from birth trauma to becoming a beacon of hope for mothers navigating similar paths. Her creation of Loreto Wellness is a tribute to her faith-driven healing process, inspired by the Litany of Loreto, and the power of maternal instincts.

How to become like saints through virtue, patience and resilience with Jacqueline Clovis, Founder of Determined to Achieve
Can virtues like generosity and forgiveness truly transform your mental health and personal development? Join us as we welcome Jacqueline Clovis, a Catholic mindset coach and CEO of Determined to Achieve, who offers a refreshing perspective on merging psychology with the Catholic faith. Jacqueline takes inspiration from Viktor Frankl's "Man's Search for Meaning" and elaborates on the significance of purpose and character education in schools. We dive deeply into practical tips for parents aiming to instill and model virtues, providing a roadmap to help children grow into future leaders and saints.
Curious about how to make virtues engaging for children? Jacqueline shares innovative methods, like a game designed to teach kids about virtues and faith in a fun, interactive way called the "Journey to Jesus" board game. We also discuss the delicate balance between reward and intrinsic motivation, helping children appreciate the value of their actions beyond immediate gratification. The episode underscores the importance of emotional regulation and resilience, with Jacqueline providing insights on how virtues like discipline and temperance can lead to personal success and long-term achievements.
Parenting isn't just about guiding children through their growth; it's about modeling the behaviour you wish to see. In this episode, we highlight the significance of parents' actions and consistency, especially during summer when family interaction is high (the interview was recorded on July 8, 2024). Jacqueline offers practical advice on how to incorporate virtues into daily activities like chores and family tasks, fostering a loving environment where virtues can naturally thrive. We cap off the episode with a look at how small, everyday sacrifices can serve as powerful lessons in Christian virtue, setting the stage for our next discussion with Sister Helela Burns on the Feminine Genius and parenthood. Tune in for an enriching conversation that blends faith, psychology, and practical parenting.

Summary for Episode 14: Josh and Lisa Canning: An Adventure of Faith with our 10 children
What if you could navigate the complexities of marriage, family, and faith with wisdom and grace? Join us on the Veil and Armour podcast as we welcome Lisa and Josh Canning, Catholic parents of 10 children, who share their remarkable journey from a serendipitous meeting at a diocesan Catholic youth event to becoming pillars in their community. Their story is one of faith, love, and dedication, offering deep insights into supporting couples through mental health challenges and guiding their ten children toward Christ.
From campus ministry at York University to starring in the HGTV Canada television show "Marriage Under Construction," both Lisa and Josh's professional growth is as fascinating as it is inspiring. Hear about the story of their surprising Valentine's Day proposal during the Rosary, and the joys and trials of their 16-year marriage. Lisa opens up about her unexpected career in television and her role as a coach and business mentor, as "The Possibility Mom," balancing a large family and a career centred upon faith and family. The Cannings’ reflections on trust, gratitude, and nurturing faith within the family are both practical and heartfelt.
Discover the delicate balance of parenting within the Catholic faith, especially when dealing with mental illness in marriage. We delve into the importance of living in a state of grace and fostering genuine relationships with faith. The Cannings share their wisdom on creating a life of margin for what truly matters and offer advice on nurturing future leaders and saints through intentional family practices. Don't miss this enriching conversation that blends insights on faith, love, career, and family life.

Lisa and Josh also highlight the importance of creating margin and space for the important things in life, such as daily Mass and prayer. The Cannings share their approach to teaching their children about faith and the importance of modelling a joyful outlook and a resilient spirit in the face of challenges. They also discuss their ministry, "Persevere Together," on the Locals website which offers support and practical advice for couples navigating mental illness in their marriage and family.

Cassandre speaks with Sheila from Paris, France. She introduces us to the newly released and transformative Rosario App by Hozana, a remarkable prayer platform designed to unite believers in prayer . The new Rosario App is challenging believers from around the world to pray a million decades of the Rosary. If this challenge is met, these prayer roses will be turned into a gift of a million roses at the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico. Cassandre's passion for this project shines as she recounts how the app not only unites users in spiritual solidarity, but also keeps track of our collective progress toward the lofty goal of a million Rosary decades. Hear how this digital sanctuary is redefining the way we offer our devotions and celebrate the maternal embodiment of faith.
This week's episode weave personal tales with the rich tapestry of history, showcasing the enduring strength and grace of women through the lens of Our Lady. We uncover the profound symbolism nestled within the Rosary and the veil, touching upon the notion of Our Blessed Mother as the new Ark of the Covenant. Sheila also recounts the miraculous power of prayer she witnessed as a young girl during the Philippines' peaceful People Power revolution. Through these personal stories, we pay homage to the maternal figures in our lives, drawing inspiration from Our Lady's unwavering "Yes" to God and her steadfast courage at the Crucifixion. Join us for an episode that honours the spiritual journey of womanhood, and explores the depths of faith and devotion through heartfelt discussion and historical insights.
