We have a new Pope! So, let's overreact and overanalyze his opening remarks (because why not?). Today, I break down Pope Leo XIV's opening statement: “Peace be with you.” Why did he focus on those words from the Risen Christ? What does it signal about his papacy? That’s what we are exploring in this episode of Always Hope.

In the “Hey Dr. Mario” segment, I answer a listener’s question about navigating a recent break-up. Breaking up is heart wrenching and I give a few pointers for how to let your heart work through the grieving process.

 Join us as we explore the excitement of an American Pope and how we can get on the other side of a break-up. Let’s go!
