Faith isn’t always easy to talk about—but it’s a big part of our lives, and this podcast has opened the door for us to explore it together. In this episode, we share personal stories about growing up Catholic, finding comfort in prayer, and the difference between faith and organized religion. We also talk about what it means to be on the same page with your partner, why praying out loud has been so powerful, and how making church an anchor to the week can shape daily life.
From funny memories as altar servers to deeper conversations about ghosts, spirits, and gut feelings—this one goes beyond fitness and into the beliefs that keep us grounded.
