Timmerie sits down with Katy Faust, the fierce, truth-telling founder of Them Before Us, to talk about something that should be obvious but somehow isn’t anymore: why kids need their mom and their dad.
The Truth Your 4-Year-Old Already Gets
Timmerie kicks things off with a conversation she had with her 4-year-old daughter, who declared (with all the sass and certainty only a preschooler can muster):
t’s not true. They’re lying. Kids need a mommy and a daddy.”
Out of the mouths of babes.
In a world where everything is questioned (including whether moms and dads are interchangeable), this little girl sees reality clearly... and so does Katy Faust.
The Cultural Crisis: When Kids Are the Casualties
Katy explains how our culture has flipped the script. Instead of asking what children need, we now ask what adults want and then use kids to fulfill it. She explains why this is a major problem:
Kids Have a Right to Their Mom and Dad
Not just “a” mom or “a” dad... their biological parents. They’re the ones wired to love and protect that child in a uniquely fierce, sacrificial way.
Adoption, Katy says (as an adoptive mom herself), is a loving response to tragedy, not a model for how we should design families from the start.Biological Identity = Personal Identity
Children deeply need to know: "Whose am I?"
When kids are cut off from their origins: via IVF, surrogacy, anonymous sperm donors, it fractures their sense of self.Gender Balance Isn't Optional. It’s Essential.
Men father. Women mother. They do it differently. That’s a gift, not a glitch.
Two dads, two moms, or three poly-partners can't replicate the complementarity of a mom and a dad. And when we pretend otherwise, kids pay the price... often through confusion, identity struggles, or even increased risk of abuse.Where the Battle’s Fiercest
Katy doesn’t mince words. The two biggest cultural flashpoints where kids are denied a mom and dad:
-Gay marriage made moms and dads legally optional.
-Reproductive technologies intentionally separate kids from their biological parents in the name of adult “choice.”
Real love puts kids first.
Love = Sacrifice
As Catholics, we believe children are a gift, not a right. And that means saying a loving no to practices that intentionally deprive them of their parents, even if it’s uncomfortable or unpopular.
Want more? Check out Katy's book, "Them Before Us". It’s a total eye-opener, and it's a call to put children’s rights before adult desires.
Kids need a mom and dad. And guess what? Even your preschooler knows it.

Meet the Guest: Dr. Susan Caldwell
Dr. Caldwell is a NAPRO-trained women’s health and fertility specialist, former birth control prescriber, and cradle Catholic who didn’t always agree with Church teaching... until science (and some divine nudging) got her attention.
This episode is full of important info, but please remember:
This isn’t medical advice. Talk to a trusted physician (preferably one who respects your faith and your fertility!) before making any health decisions.The Big Shift: From Pill-Pusher to Pro-Woman Doc
Dr. Caldwell shares her eye-opening journey:
-Took the Pill herself for 10 years, thinking it was “just what women do” to pursue professional goals.
-Prescribed it for years without question...until she started seeing patterns: breast cancer, strokes, blood clots in young women.
-She realized the risks weren’t “one in a million” flukes. They were dangerously underplayed.
-When she actually looked into the science and pathophysiology, it blew her mind and opened her heart to what the Catholic Church had been saying all along.
The Risks Are Real (And They're Not "Just Catholic")
Here’s why any woman should be concerned:
1. It’s a Group 1 Carcinogen
That’s the same level as cigarettes and asbestos. We don’t call that “healthcare.”2. Mental Health Meltdown
Taking birth control while your brain is still developing (under 25) can cause permanent anxiety and depression.3. Damaged Fertility
Many women who delay pregnancy find out too late that birth control sabotaged their fertility.4. It Can Kill Babies
Many forms of contraception don’t just prevent pregnancy; they can act as abortifacients. Little lives lost without anyone knowing.It’s Not Just About Morality. It’s About Mercy.
Dr. Caldwell stopped prescribing the Pill... not just because of Church teaching, but because she couldn't, in good conscience, ignore the science anymore.
She even apologized to patients she’d previously prescribed it to.Was it scary? Oh yeah. Did some patients walk away? For sure.
But many stayed, listened, and even came back later with more questions. Seeds planted.Real Talk: Women Deserve Better
Timmerie and Dr. Caldwell passionately argue that:
-Contraception is bad medicine.
-Women are not being told the truth about their bodies.
-It's not “just a Catholic issue.” It’s a human dignity and health issue.
-There ARE life-affirming, science-based alternatives (like NFP and NAPRO) that actually support women’s health.
Share the Truth. Start the Conversation.
Because women deserve to know the full story... not just the easy one.
Know someone who’s on the Pill “just because”? Share this episode. You might be the spark that leads them to real freedom.

Timmerie just rocked this episode of Trending with a commentary on St. Peter’s wild rollercoaster of a spiritual journey: from face-palming mistakes to fearless faith.
She kicks it off reminding us why the whole world, Catholic or not, keeps one eye on the Catholic Church: because God’s authority in His Church is undeniable, magnetic, and kind of a big deal. And with all eyes often on Rome, especially during a papal election, she turns ours to... Peter, the first Pope.
He wasn’t born a saint. He struggled, and it’s the best news ever for us.
Peter the Passionate (a.k.a. The Guy Who Told Jesus He Was Wrong... Oops)
-Timmerie says that Peter was dramatic. Like, theatrical.
-He told Jesus, “God forbid, you won’t suffer and die!”
-Jesus responds: “Get behind me, Satan.” Yeah… not great.
Here’s the key: Peter failed hard, but he kept coming back. Even after denying Jesus three times, he didn’t stay stuck in shame. He ran back to Christ... and so should we.
“Here I Am, Lord…” (Even When I Mess Up)
Timmerie reminds us: every time we sin, we deny Christ, just like Peter. What sets saints apart is what they do after they mess up. Peter models radical repentance, and that's a masterclass in holiness.
Tip from Timmerie: Run to confession. RUN. 🏃♀️ Don’t be scared. Jesus wants you back.
When Jesus Walked on Water (and Peter Sank Like a Rock)
She takes us through John 6 and Matthew 14, where Peter literally steps out of a boat onto the sea. Epic courage... until he looks at the waves instead of Jesus and starts sinking.
Peter: “Lord, save me!”
Jesus: immediately grabs him.Moral of the story: Even when you're in over your head, Jesus is just one desperate cry away.
“To Whom Shall We Go?”
Even when many people walked away from Jesus during the Bread of Life discourse, Peter stays. His words were utter gold:
“Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.”
That’s the heartbeat of the faith. Not perfect understanding, but faithful love.
Takeaways from St. Peter's Messy, Beautiful Journey:
-Name change = mission change. When Jesus renamed Simon to Peter (aka Rock), he received a new identity.
-Friendship with Christ takes time, but it also transforms us.
-When you fall, get up fast and grab Jesus’ hand.
-Courage ≠ lack of fear. It’s acting anyway.
-Fortitude (acting even unto death) is the muscle of the saints.
Final Pep Talk from Timmerie:
Jesus is saying to YOU:
“It is I. Do not be afraid.”Live the sacramental life. Stay in a state of grace. Confession and Eucharist are your lifeline.
Be like Peter: not because he was flawless, but because he never stopped trusting Jesus, especially when he fell.
Ready to run to confession yet?
