About this listen

[DONATE WITH PAYPAL] Building on the chivalry episode's exploration of masculine ideals, Greg humbly unpacks the complementary feminine genius as by St. John Paul II in four key qualities—receptivity, sensitivity, generosity, and maternity—and integration with bold action through scriptural quotes and teachings. He integrates these concepts with examples of heroic women like Deborah, Judith, Esther, Mary, and saints including Hildegard of Bingen, Catherine of Siena, Joan of Arc, Teresa of Ávila, Frances Xavier Cabrini, Edith Stein, and more, showing how their courage stems from feminine strengths. With disclaimers about his perspective as a man and personal anecdotes, Greg critiques modern challenges to this vision in secular culture and issues calls to action for women to reclaim it through pro-life advocacy, evangelization, and spiritual motherhood. This episode highlights complementarity with masculinity, offering feminine genius as a timeless Catholic alternative for building the Kingdom amid contemporary chaos.
