What gives someone the strength to endure unimaginable suffering without losing hope?

In this inspiring episode of Your Radical Truth, Deacon Margaret Mary O'Connor welcomes Australian author and retired physician Kate Clinch to explore the extraordinary life of Eileen O'Connor, Australia's second saint-in-waiting. Born with a debilitating illness that left her in constant pain, Eileen transformed her suffering into a life of compassion, co-founding Our Lady's Nurses for the Poor and dedicating herself to serving society's most vulnerable.

Kate also shares her own deeply personal journey, including a profound near-death experience and her battle with stomach cancer while writing her debut novel, Every Inch a Saint. What began as historical research became a source of strength, hope, and spiritual companionship during one of the most difficult seasons of her life.

Together, Margaret Mary and Kate explore faith, resilience, mysticism, miracles, the relationship between science and spirituality, and the enduring legacy of a woman whose courage continues to inspire more than a century after her death.

If you've ever wondered how suffering can lead to purpose, or how faith can sustain us through life's greatest challenges, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
