What happens when a pandemic hobby transforms into a divine calling? In this heartwarming conversation with Emily S. Pitre of Emily S P Art, we discover the beautiful intersection of motherhood, faith, and creative entrepreneurship.

Emily shares how a simple watercolor kit from the children's aisle at Michael's and unexpected free time during COVID lockdowns led to creating Catholic-inspired art that now appears in over 90 stores across the country. With disarming honesty, she recounts her journey from full-time pediatric occupational therapist to faith-driven artist, including the miraculous confirmation she received through a novena to St. Therese that involved nine specific roses appearing exactly when needed.

As a mother to an almost three-year-old and a fresh two-month-old, Emily creates with purpose—designing products that are both beautiful and practical for Catholic families. Her watercolor saints adorn everything from mugs to "Mass bags," helping children and adults alike recognize that saints were regular people just like us. "We're all just trying to get to heaven, provide for our families, and be regular people," Emily reflects, capturing the accessible spirituality that makes her work resonate with so many.

The conversation delves into the vulnerability of following unexpected callings and finding community among like-minded creatives. Emily's story reminds us that sometimes the most meaningful ministry happens outside traditional roles—whether through art that sparks conversations about faith or gentle nudges that lead teenagers back to confession.
