In the premiere episode of Faith in the Wild, lifelong friends and co-hosts Nicole Moran and Angelica McCarthy invite listeners into an honest exploration of trust—what it means, how it evolves, and why it matters.
Drawing from their own journeys, Nicole shares how trust shapes her life as a mother and physical therapist, while Angelica reflects on her transition away from athletic training and into new, uncharted paths. Together, they open up about the tension between control and surrender, the courage it takes to be vulnerable, and the grounding role of faith when navigating change.
This heartfelt conversation highlights the importance of supportive relationships, the power of self-reflection, and the unfolding nature of trust as a lifelong practice. With affirmations of mutual support and an emphasis on staying intentional through life’s uncertainties, Nicole and Angelica set the tone for a season dedicated to growth, connection, and the wild beauty of faith.
