- Ideal listener
- If you have it all together, if you're sky high on life, if you continually leap from one pinnacle of natural excellence to an even higher summit of human greatness, bounding upward, always with grace and precision and a laser focus on perfection -- good for you. I'm happy for you and in awe of you. But you don't need this podcast.
- Let me put it this way. This podcast is for the Catholic who admits he or she is hurting, struggling, a lost sheep, in need of help.
- This podcast is for you who are like me, who are very imperfect, wounded, harmed in various ways, who are confused and frustrated, who are weary, who are lonely, who are burdened in different ways.
- It's for your parts.
- we are a unity but also a multiplicity. We don't have a single, unified, homogenous, monolithic personality. We have several or many parts
