Persistence in Prayer with Kylie Hein
Raise your hand if you've ever...
Placed your worth in praise, perfection, or productivity?
Felt like God was near, but couldn't figure out what he was asking you to do.
Questioned why if you're doing God's will, your vocation seems SO stinking hard.
Dropped everything to help out a coworker, only to come home paralyzed by decision fatigue because you didn't touch your own to-do list.
My friend, you are in good company! If you are a fellow book buying, course-taking, love to do all-of-the-things while often getting stuck in a state of overwhelm kind of Catholic, this is the place for you!
Welcome to the Persistence in Prayer podcast, hosted by Catholic Mindset Coach, wife, mother, educator, and speaker, Kylie Hein. This podcast is where Catholic women learn to create space from their circumstances and obligations, so that they can show up mentally present with those that need them most. We explore the beauty and simplicity of life that comes as a result of persistence in prayer, as well as all of the daily trials that come with living a life rooted in Christ.
If you're in a valley and need a friend, we're here. If you're on a peak and ready to shout out your wins to the world, we're here for that too!
Here, you will learn to cultivate a deeper sense of trust in God's plan for your life so that you have clarity in His calling and the courage to go wherever he leads. If you long to give God a more prominent place in your life, but you aren't sure where to begin, stick around. Being a high achiever and having a deep, meaningful prayer life are not mutually exclusive. You don't have to sacrifice your one-on-one time with God to meet the demands of your job, your family, or your schedule. You have a choice. Your fresh start to freedom may be just one episode away.

#59 More Energy - Working Genius with Karyn Macfarlane
Do you ever wonder why sometimes you can work at a job and feel completely burnout one day and completely energized the next?
In this episode my guest, Karyn Macfarlane is going to give you some new language to describe and understand how you can find more energy throughout the day in your work and in your home.
Karyn, a coach and the wife of a performing artist, shares her journey of becoming a coach to support spouses of professionals, inspired by her own experiences. She talks about the unique challenges faced by spouses of musicians, akin to those in athletics, and how coaching helped her realize the importance of sharing her insights. She then walks us through the "Working Genius" model created by Patrick Lencioni and his team.
Working Genius identifies six areas of work necessary for any project: Wonder, Invention, Discernment, Galvanizing, Enablement, and Tenacity (WIDGET). We discuss each stage, its significance, and how different people thrive in different areas. They highlight how recognizing one's own and others' working geniuses can enhance productivity and satisfaction in both personal and professional life. The episode emphasizes the model's practicality, its alignment with Catholic faith, and its ability to reduce frustration and burnout by helping individuals focus on their strengths and understand their areas of frustration.
As always, we end this epsisode with a quick prayer tip.
