Latte and Laundry: A home for Catholic women, moms, and hearts + encouragement for your mighty motherhood
Catholic mom, Catholic women, and ALL friends seeking God- WELCOME! This is a podcast designed to provide my fellow sisters in Christ with encouragement and support for the beautiful and difficult journey of living out our vocations. Truth is that motherhood, marriage, and living out our feminine genius are incredibly hard endeavors. Yet, through the perseverance of pursuing all that is good, true, and beautiful we are tenderly being transformed into vessels of God's love, one tiny dish, meeting, or dirty diaper at a time. So, join me, Suzanne - homeschooling momma of 6, every week as we journey together with a Mary & Martha mission towards "stilling our souls WHILE moving our world." Together, let's sit at the feet of Christ like Mary, while moving with the gusto and strength of Martha! Join me and my friends as we laugh, cry, dive deep, and explore with one another as navigate wifehood, motherhood, and sisterhood with our eyes on Christ. Let us encourage you in your mighty and holy work of motherhood and wifehood!

“And the very hairs on your head are all numbered.” Matthew 10:30.
We are frequently reminded that nothing is too big for the heart of God. He is a God of miracles. But what if we forget that nothing is too small either! In fact, we can look to Jesus' first miracle to see that God cares about even the seemingly small.

Mother, Bride, Sister, Colleague, Friend...these are identities and roles many of us play and have been called to. But what if one of the hurdles we have that keeps us from fully living the divinely appointed vocations we are called to is that we often forget that we are FIRST daughter.
We can often feel overwhelmed by all of our daily responsibilities and duties. So many pe...

This week I take a look at what it truly means to "gentle parent." I believe there is a big misunderstanding about what gentle parenting means, often leaving parents to believe that in order...
Y'all, this was such a treat of a conversation for me. I sat down with Heidi Bratton this week to discuss how God calls us to a kindness that beautifully expresses our maternal love. Yet, as Heidi so beautifully writes in her She Loved letter - we often fall into the trap of believing the lie that we must decide between efficiency OR kindness when living out our maternity. But what if kindness is always the answer, regardless ...
This week I am joined by my very dear and treasured friend Beth Sri. She has a beautiful heart for Jesus and a devoted love for Motherhood, which is why she is a treasured contributor to the "She Loved" letters. She dives into the truth that Love Keeps no Record of Wrong.

"Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends." 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8

"Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. Take to heart these words that I give you today. Repeat them to your children. Talk about them when you’re at home or away, when you lie down or get up. Write them down, and tie them around your wrist, and wear them as headbands as a reminder. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates." Deuteronomy 6:5-9
