In this episode of Your Radical Truth, Margaret Mary O’Connor welcomes back Father Anne for a conversation that goes far beyond surface-level discussion. This is the beginning of an ongoing monthly series where real issues are explored without filtering or softening the message. The focus of this episode centers on women in the Catholic Church, what has been taught, what has been omitted, and what is now being questioned. Father Anne speaks directly to the issue of ordination, not as a “women’s issue,” but as a matter of justice. When women are excluded from full participation, it doesn’t just impact women. It shapes the entire structure of the Church and influences how authority, dignity, and voice are defined. The conversation also takes a closer look at Mary Magdalene, a figure long misunderstood and often diminished. As the first witness to the resurrection, her role was foundational, yet history has not always reflected that truth accurately. This episode challenges long-standing narratives and invites listeners to take a deeper look at what they’ve accepted without question. It explores the connection between religious hierarchy, power structures, and the broader impact on society. There is no attempt here to make this comfortable. The goal is clarity. If you’ve ever questioned what you’ve been taught, or sensed there was more beneath the surface, this conversation will give you plenty to consider.
