Description

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Erika Bachiochi - a distinguished legal scholar,  mother, wife, and feminist. Erika shares with us her experience of addiction as a teen, her intellectual search for truth and the healing power of relationships. She explains her spiritual awakening, the transformative power of prayer in her life and the kindness of strangers. 

Erika also shares her thoughts on:

• Managing family and career, marriage as a training ground for virtue and parenting for inter-dependence;
• Meaningful dialogue in a polarised world;
• The role of the Catholic Worker Movement in shaping her views on service and justice;
• The concept of Sex-Realist Feminism: the acknowledgement of  biological sex differences integrated with the advocacy for equal rights and opportunities for women; and
• The unique capacity of women to get to the heart of the matter.

This conversation will provide an insightful view into being Catholic and feminist, healing from childhood traumas, becoming strong as the person you are called to be and being an advocate for women's rights.
