I’ve been doing an awful lot of podcast recording and not a lot of podcast publishing this spring. (But did you see the special episode with my husband, Michael, that I just published? I think you’ll enjoy it!)
My season of life is full to the brim with all of my babies and blessings, and it’s taken me a while to realize that I can’t keep up with everything, to be completely honest. I’m learning that what I can do is give an unreserved “yes” to those things I know God is really asking of me right now, and that I need to leave the thought of all the rest to Him.
I scheduled a wonderful lineup of interviews just about every week this spring, and my overambitious self thought I’d be able to keep up with going back and producing all of those interviews. It’s sort of laughable to me now that I thought I could keep up with it all!
The good news is that I’ve finally finished my spring marathon of interviews! And by “all of these,” I mean twelve. Yep…get really excited.:)
Since I can’t give you a timeline for when each new episode will come out, now would be a great time to subscribe to The Right Heart if you haven’t done so already. If you’re subscribed to the podcast, you get a quick email each time I publish a new episode (with a link to listen to the new episode right there in your inbox if you want).
To subscribe, just put your name and email into the boxes located at the very top of any page of my website (and make sure you confirm your subscription when I send you the confirmation email.)
Upcoming Episodes

Leigh says
Very exciting for you! You have been busy! Can I ask who your intended audience is for this show? Are single women or women who are married but are childless included? Thank you and good luck!
Erin Franco says
Hi Leigh! I have such a wide variety of topics and episodes on the show. I record about what interests me, and I’m interested in a lot more than just young marriage and mommy topics.:) The show is more about being a Catholic Christian than being specifically a mom, although I bring my own life and experiences into the show, of course. Thanks for the encouragement! God bless– Erin
