The Flourishing Sisterhood Podcast explores what it means to flourish in religious life and beyond. We capture the rich stories and amplify the voices of Catholic religious sisters from the Gulf Coast region of the U.S. Their powerful experiences have deeply transformed the Church and the world. Join us each episode for a new tale of spirituality, resilience, innovation, resolve, and faith in action.

The Flourishing Sisterhood Project is supported by the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation’s Catholic Sisters Initiative. The podcast is produced by the Loyola Institute for Ministry and retained by the university’s Digital Humanities Archive.
