S3 Episode 3: Alexandra Macey Davis on Discernment, Career Pivots, and Receptivity

Catholic Women Lead

CWIB Presidents Taryn DeLong and Elise Crawford Gallagher’s new book, Holy Ambition: Thriving as a Catholic Woman at Work and at Home, is ⁠available for preorder⁠!

Season 3 of Catholic Women Lead will share excerpts from Elise and Taryn’s interviews with 16 Catholic businesswomen. Their stories are included in the book, but there wasn’t room for all of their wisdom, so we’re sharing it here on our podcast.

In episode 3, editor and author Alexandra Macey Davis shares her experiences and wisdom when it comes to discernment, receptivity, and integrating faith into her work.
