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.

#99 Loving Without Consolation: Kevin Wells on Spiritual Warfare, Marriage, and Redemptive Suffering
Have you ever cried out to God and been met with silence? Have you prayed and fasted, only to feel like things are getting worse instead of better?
In this Holy Week episode of The Persistence in Prayer Podcast, Catholic speaker and author Kevin Wells joins Kylie to share a raw and deeply moving testimony of marriage, addiction, spiritual warfare, and the power of redemptive suffering. Through the lens of his powerful book The Hermit: The Priest Who Saved a Soul, a Marriage, and a Family, Kevin reveals how God's grace entered the darkest corners of his home through contemplative prayer, the intercession of Our Lady, and the heroic holiness of a priest who refused to walk away.
Together, they explore:
- What it means to love when there are no consolations
- How to remain faithful in the spiritual desert
- The sacred role of Catholic priests as spiritual fathers
- The quiet strength of Mary at the foot of the Cross
- Why contemplative prayer changes everything
- And the hidden battle for souls unfolding in every family
If you or someone you love has faced despair, addiction, or the ache of unanswered prayer — this episode will renew your hope. A must-listen for Holy Week.
