About the show

Social media has inundated our every day and it's really easy to get lost in other's incredible experiences, but there is always a real story of how they got there. What is the nitty-gritty behind the pretty picture or edited caption in the pictures of their real life? What is the real story? Talk to Me!

Humans are encouraged and uplifted by hearing and seeing the real, influential stories. This brings a sense of realism to our very edited and manicured social media lives. There is also an opportunity to discuss how God or perhaps inner strength played a part in these success stories. Let’s bring back the art of storytelling and strive for connection instead of comparison.

A Forte Catholic production

    This week’s guest is Katie Hartfiel. And even though she is a sought-after speaker on the Steubenville circuit she still longs to connect with the hearts she touches. Katie not only speaks to thousands of teens she is also the female face of Encounter. A young adult ministry housed by Steubenville. What captures most of Katie’s audiences is her ability to touch the feminine genius in a way that feels like home. She wrote a book about how she prepared for marriage and that has led her in high demand in women’s, Mothers, marriage, and mother/daughter ministries.

    This week features my favorite West Texas gal, Kathryn Whitaker. From the moment she says anything I
    feel at home. Not because I’m from West Texas, but because I went to college there. We did a “freaky
    Friday”. I left the city and went to the panhandle and she left the panhandle and went to…well College
    Station. Pour a glass of sweet tea (although I love unsweet), crack open a Dr. Pepper, or just get a nice
    cold one out of the fridge.

    My guest is Geeta Raj is the smart woman that partnered with “White House Sleepover” guy (David) to create The Global Sleepover. Not only does she have a BA in Creative Writing and can speak Hindi, Urdu, and Spanish. She also holds a Masters in International Peace and Conflict Resolution from American University in Washington, DC. (Who even knew that was an option to get in school?). Funny enough none of these reasons are why you will leave this podcast being impressed with my dear friend of over 25 years. Her story about growing up as an Indian-American girl with parents who were immigrants from India (in fact her father was a refugee in the 1940’s) will leave you wanting to meet up with her for coffee.

    The story of a city girl moving to a farm did become the reality of Haley Stewart. She willingly left comfort behind to discover the magic that only the rural life can produce. Her tales of small quarters and non-plumbing will have you jumping in a SUV heading towards the nearest Starbucks! Or you just might hear some pretty profound lessons that are applicable to wherever you are living your life.
    Two words to describe this fascinating story: OUTHOUSE BUCKET

    Even though he has lived a “glamourous life” of being an actor in LA with a super famous best friend and a Broadway award winning sister, it does not matter. Markus is all too familiar with the life he left in LA and the perks of fame and fortune. Markus knew as a black man married to a white woman with biracial children in Texas, he would not have a linear path to happiness. He has found a way to maintain his talent of acting and entertainment while honoring true personal success.
