Sheen \u201cAmong Women\u201d Guest: Joanna Wahlund This episode of Among Women examines the challenges of mothers who work either by choice or necessity. While each woman\u2019s situation is unique, we look at how important connections to faith and family are for the mothering vocation. Joanna Wahlund, a longtime listener to Among Women, and now author of The Catholic Working Mothers\u2019 Guide to Life&amp;nbsp;is my guest. Together we discuss the foundations of the book, plus women saints who might be good patrons for working mothers, as well as tips for growing in prayer, discernment, and finding sisters in Christ. And, in a departure from our usual fare, based on the news of the week, I\u2019m dedicating our Blessed Our They segment to talk about the upcoming beatification of Bishop Fulton J. Sheen.   &amp;nbsp; Links for this episode: News of the Beatification of Fulton J. Sheen The Worlds\u2019 First Love (Mary, Mother of God) by Fulton J.
