• Questions answered this episode:

    • How can I affirm the single life as a valid and holy vocation, especially for those who feel overlooked in typical vocation stories?
    • As a wife with low sexual desire due to hormones (e.g., postpartum), is it okay to engage in intimacy for my husband's sake even if it's uncomfortable—and is it wrong to show enthusiasm I don’t truly feel?

    • When teaching my kids about sexuality, should I share my own past sexual sins—or could that send the wrong message, even though I’ve been forgiven?
