Welcome to Season 2 Episode 5! This episode is pretty special to me because I got to interview my sister Shandy Cortes! She’s a doula, and as such I think she’s a Guardian of Birth. It’s been a joy of mine to watch her grow as a doula, and to see her be a Guardian of Birth as she helps women have amazing birth experiences. I am grateful that I get to share her with you!

Welcome to Episode 28!!!! Today’s interview is an interview that was divinely postponed until the right moment, and the moment is now. I don’t write that lightly, it truly is the right moment. I was supposed to interview Mark Mabry a couple months ago, and for multiple reasons it didn’t work out. Fast forward to last Thursday, I watched “The Sound of Freedom” at the theater, and I felt like I should contact Mark again about recording an interview last minute about being a Guardian of Freedom so I messaged him that night, and here we are, not even a month later. So, that is what today’s episode is about- what it means to be a Guardian of Freedom in the context of the work that Mark Mabry has done with Tim Ballard in Operation Underground Railroad. To me, Mark Mabry and Tim Ballard, and I know they’d be uncomfortable with this,but to me, these men are modern day Captain Moroni’s. Ya’ll know I don’t make that comparison lightly. Captain Moroni did so much good despite his hot-headedness. These men do as well, despite whatever weaknesses they have. They fight for freedom everyday and aren’t afraid to talk about it. This interview is a once in a life-time interview that I will cherish and think back on my whole life. I learned so much and Mark was such an easy person to talk to. I hope you enjoy today’s episode!
