Episode #35- November 22, 2021: Extending Olive Branches- How to Reconcile with Rejection

In this episode Alisha, Lauren, and Stacy discuss what to do when we feel like there is a conflict with a family member or friend and we have exhausted all of our olive branches and still feel rejected. We thought this episode would compliment our episodes on Social Justice Teaching (we do have one more coming) and the beginning of the holiday season. 

During the episode Stacy quotes numerous times from the book If You Knew My Family, You'd Understand : A Family Systems Primer by Jack Shitama.

Also,

A few weeks ago Coffee & Catholics was invited to be guests on another podcast, Come Pray with Me. Come Pray With Me is a podcast created and produced by Sarah, a college student at Washington College in Maryland. The university's Department of Religious Studies sponsors the podcast. On her podcast, Sarah explores various world religions in the hope to bring understanding and shared humanity.

We would like to remind listeners that this podcast is in a talk show format, in that the four of us simply gather around a dining room table and discuss topics that pertain to being Catholic and a woman. We share our stories in the hope that it helps others know that they are not alone. We do not claim to have any official authority when it comes to church teachings. We do our research and ask that all of our listeners do the same. We are on this journey with you and so glad to be. Thanks be to God!  Please continue to pray for us, as we hold all of you in our prayers.
