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.

Episode Summary:
In this heartfelt pre-Christmas episode of Persistence in Prayer, host Kylie Hein is joined by her husband, Russell Hein. Together, they discuss the challenges and joys couples face during the holiday season, particularly when navigating family gatherings and complex dynamics.
The episode opens with warm introductions and a brief history of how Kylie and Russell met. They reflect on their different faith backgrounds—Kylie being Catholic and Russell not—and how that influences their family traditions. Russell shares his love for Christmas, especially his passion for decorating and keeping his grandfather’s legacy of extravagant outdoor displays alive. Meanwhile, Kylie reminisces about her cherished tradition of attending Midnight Mass with her family.
They also talk about setting boundaries for holiday celebrations to ensure peace and joy, including their decision to reserve Christmas Eve for their immediate family and having separate celebrations with extended family before and after Christmas. The conversation extends to handling holiday stress, offering advice for spouses on how to support each other during the hectic preparation period.
The episode ends with some lighthearted moments as their six-year-old son joins in to share his own Christmas advice and favorite parts of the holiday. They collectively remind listeners of the true reason for the season: the birth of Jesus Christ, encouraging everyone to keep that at the heart of their celebrations.
