Persistence in Prayer with Kylie Hein
Welcome to the Persistence in Prayer podcast — where Catholic women who feel scattered, stretched thin, and pulled in a million directions can stop overthinking, quiet the noise, and find peace in God’s presence.
Do you push through each day chasing productivity, yet feel like your soul is running on empty?
Do you long to pray with focus, but your mind spins with stress, decisions, and distractions?
Do you want clarity in your faith, but feel weighed down by pressure to be “the good one” or “get it right”?
You’re not alone.
Hosted by Catholic mindset coach, spiritual director, wife, mom, and speaker Kylie Hein, this podcast helps overwhelmed Catholic women clear the mental clutter and reclaim space for prayer, trust, and peace.
Each episode offers:
- Simple Catholic prayer practices you can actually use in busy life
- Real-life stories of women overcoming stress, perfectionism, and anxiety
- Honest conversations about faith, surrender, and discernment
- Tools rooted in Scripture, the saints, and Church teaching for peace of mind and soul
You’ll discover how to:
- Pray when you feel distracted, stressed, or spiritually dry
- Hear God’s voice in the middle of your busy schedule
- Discern decisions with peace and confidence
- Break free from perfectionism and self-reliance
- Live with greater trust, surrender, and clarity of purpose
Whether you’re feeling spiritually stuck or longing to go deeper, there’s a place for you here.
It’s time to step out of the spiral, begin again, and experience the freedom that comes from persistence in prayer.
Because when your soul is ordered in God, your life becomes rooted in His peace.

Anne and Kylie delve into the topic of perfectionism and control, discussing how these issues often stem from deep-seated beliefs or past experiences. Anne shares her personal journey, including her transition from running a nonprofit to becoming a therapist, illustrating the transformative power of embracing life's detours. They also explore how science and faith can coexist harmoniously, emphasizing the importance of recognizing signs in our bodies that might indicate the need for additional help.
Anne offers practical insights into the EMDR therapy process, explaining how it leverages the brain's natural capabilities to heal from trauma. The conversation touches on the vital role of humility, the significance of prayer, and the resilience required to pursue new paths later in life.
This episode is an inspiring reminder that we are never too old to start something new and that God's timing is perfect, even when the journey feels challenging.
