🎙️ Kate Sell has spent 25 years as the "backroom person" behind Catholic dioceses, religious orders, universities, and authors — helping organizations like the Augustine Institute and the Eucharistic Congress figure out who they are and get their message out. In this episode, she traces her whole story: converting to Catholicism at 22 after a black cassette tape titled The Conversion of Scott Hahn, getting her marriage blessed by John Paul II on her honeymoon, and building a career almost by accident — one phone call, one unpaid bill, and one act of obedience at a time.

Kate and Liv also get into raising five kids (including two sons now in seminary) while fielding real pushback from other faithful Catholics for working and traveling too much, the saints she leans on to stay grounded (St. Thérèse, St. Zélie, St. Edith Stein), and her philosophy on free will, fear, and preparing kids for the real world instead of shielding them from it. This one's for you if you've ever wondered how a career, a conversion, and a big Catholic family actually fit together.
