Ex-model turned pro-life speaker： Raising children doesn't mean women can't achieve their dreams too


Summary

In this modern culture, women are often told that if you have a large family, you will never achieve your dreams. We have with us someone today who has achieved many, many dreams, and someone who is able to explain to women how to get there. Her name is Lea Dero, and you might have heard of her before because she has been very popular in pro-life, pro-family, and the field of the culture of life. I met Lea in person the last time I met her 10 years ago, and since then, she has had 6 children and lives a very happy and fulfilled life.

00:00:00.960 In this modern culture, women are often told,
00:00:04.080 well, if you have a large family,
00:00:05.920 you're never going to achieve your dreams.
00:00:08.400 We've got with us someone today
00:00:10.280 who has achieved many, many dreams,
00:00:13.400 and someone who is able to explain to women how to get there.
00:00:17.680 Her name is Lea Dero.
00:00:20.000 You might have heard of her before
00:00:21.600 because she's been very, very popular
00:00:23.680 in all of the pro-life, pro-family,
00:00:26.640 and just the field of the culture of life.
00:00:30.280 I met Lea in person the last time, 10 years ago.
00:00:35.080 Since then, she's got six children
00:00:38.600 and lives a very happy and fulfilled life.
00:00:41.560 Stay tuned for this episode
00:00:42.840 of The John Henry Reston Show with Lea Dero.
00:00:56.640 Lea, welcome to the program.
00:01:07.920 Thanks for having me, I'm happy to be here.
00:01:10.600 Let's begin, as we always do, with the sign of the cross.
00:01:13.240 In the name of the Father, and of the Son,
00:01:16.200 and of the Holy Ghost, amen.
00:01:19.720 Now, Lea, one of the things that you were well known
00:01:22.960 for a long time ago was a subject that is very hard
00:01:26.840 to speak about.
00:01:27.400 Nobody dares to go in that direction.
00:01:29.000 You do.
00:01:30.440 It's about modesty.
00:01:32.320 Tell us a little bit about that.
00:01:33.720 What challenges have you faced
00:01:35.640 in trying to bring that message forward,
00:01:38.480 and what is its importance in the church
00:01:41.680 and in the culture today?
00:01:43.640 Yeah, modesty is an incredibly important topic,
00:01:46.000 but often when we hear that topic being discussed,
00:01:49.800 we think that, one, it only pertains to women,
00:01:51.880 although there is a great deal of conversation
00:01:54.040 that women should have about that,
00:01:56.080 but we also think that it is the only thing
00:01:58.680 that we should be talking about.
00:02:00.440 And modesty is this beautiful virtue, actually,
00:02:03.240 that we're really discussing.
00:02:04.520 It's not about hemlines.
00:02:07.320 It's more about the virtue in our life
00:02:09.120 and how do we embody that virtue to become closer to Christ.
00:02:13.320 And so modesty should bring out the deepest forms
00:02:17.040 of charity within us, that we are able to look at our lives
00:02:21.200 as a whole and be able to make sure
00:02:23.840 that it's all congruent with our beliefs.
00:02:27.680 You know, for me, taking up the virtue of modesty
00:02:29.880 was a journey, and it still is.
00:02:31.840 It's something that you have to continue to look at
00:02:33.700 because it is a virtue that you can bring into your life
00:02:36.440 and create a habit with.
00:02:37.440 But before, you know, I had my major, you know,
00:02:41.200 reversion back to the church,
00:02:43.760 modesty was something that I did not think of
00:02:45.720 and that I did not want to think of.
00:02:47.560 I saw it only as rules, only as, well, you shouldn't wear that.
00:02:51.360 And it was only allocated to clothing.
00:02:54.860 That's how I thought modesty was.
00:02:56.740 And it's only about what you wear.
00:02:58.280 And the problem with that is that when we take a look
00:03:02.040 at this topic of modesty and we only discuss fashion,
00:03:04.840 we only discuss clothing, we've really made modesty
00:03:08.280 and this virtue of modesty just like a Halloween outfit
00:03:11.200 that you take on and you put off once in a while
00:03:14.360 whenever you want to.
00:03:15.880 But modesty has something deeper.
00:03:17.300 As I mentioned, it's a virtue.
00:03:18.460 It's supposed to be this habit within us
00:03:20.680 that reveals, you know, our whole life
00:03:23.800 as a whole, as a believer.
00:03:25.780 So as I, you know, even when I came back to the church
00:03:28.760 and I was trying to change my habits
00:03:30.080 and I was trying to change my thinking
00:03:31.400 and my mindset to be more in line with Christ,
00:03:33.560 I obviously was changing my weekend activities.
00:03:36.500 I was changing the friends that I had.
00:03:39.420 I was changing my daily and my evening routines
00:03:41.920 of what I did.
00:03:43.360 All of this I was doing.
00:03:45.140 And to be honest with you,
00:03:46.180 my clothing was one of the very last things
00:03:48.520 that I actually changed.
00:03:50.360 And so I shared that because when we talk about modesty,
00:03:54.140 it is sometimes this journey that people are on
00:03:57.380 and we should have compassion
00:03:58.920 when we're talking about this to others.
00:04:01.060 So the idea of, I see this girl at mass
00:04:04.180 and she's wearing something inappropriate.
00:04:06.560 Again, once importantly,
00:04:07.800 that modesty is not just about clothing,
00:04:09.380 but sometimes it obviously is.
00:04:10.880 So we do need to talk about that.
00:04:12.780 And so I've had plenty of people come up to me and say,
00:04:15.220 I think I should say something to this girl at church.
00:04:18.560 She's, you know, in the church
00:04:19.800 wearing this immodest outfit.
00:04:21.720 In my personal opinion,
00:04:23.520 I think we should have compassion
00:04:24.800 because sometimes it's just the fact
00:04:26.460 that some people don't know.
00:04:27.460 Some people are on a journey
00:04:28.400 and it's up to us to help guide people,
00:04:31.460 but also with kindness
00:04:33.120 and with deep compassion of people are on that.
00:04:35.960 I was that girl in church
00:04:36.940 who was trying to get her life back together.
00:04:39.020 And while people may have seen me wearing something,
00:04:42.140 maybe not church appropriate,
00:04:43.440 you know, at mass,
00:04:45.360 what was going on is that Christ was doing work in me
00:04:47.800 little by little.
00:04:49.340 And there was a moment where I came out of church
00:04:51.540 and I was like, oh man,
00:04:53.560 maybe I shouldn't wear this to church.
00:04:56.200 Oh, oh, I get it.
00:04:58.760 And then the light bulb went on
00:05:00.180 and things began to change.
00:05:01.800 And I love sharing that story
00:05:03.140 because it's like we all have those moments
00:05:05.720 where we're trying to stay in alignment with Christ
00:05:07.760 and with his beliefs and with the gospel.
00:05:10.600 And sometimes things just take a little bit longer
00:05:13.020 to kind of connect.
00:05:14.540 And so modesty is a great topic.
00:05:16.240 I love it.
00:05:16.980 It's something that a lot of people
00:05:18.520 have a frustration with.
00:05:19.700 And I understand that,
00:05:21.020 but it's also a topic just like any other virtue
00:05:23.180 that we want everybody to,
00:05:24.620 you know, have in their life.
00:05:26.060 It's also a journey that we're all on.
00:05:27.940 So patience and understanding is so needed
00:05:29.840 when we talk about this.
00:05:32.060 Yeah.
00:05:32.500 And I think particularly for men,
00:05:34.480 it's a different virtue
00:05:36.980 in that part of modesty for men,
00:05:39.880 if especially when they're in situations like that,
00:05:42.320 where they're confronted with someone
00:05:43.820 who might be immodestly dressed,
00:05:45.800 not through their fault,
00:05:47.060 just through basic not knowing
00:05:49.560 what they should do or not do.
00:05:52.260 Men do have a responsibility there.
00:05:53.980 And it sounds so strange in our current culture,
00:05:57.840 but to look away,
00:05:59.260 to practice custody of the eyes
00:06:00.700 is really important
00:06:02.360 because it's a real part of what men need to do
00:06:05.440 to maintain their own purity of thought
00:06:07.540 and to be able to relate to women properly
00:06:11.440 such that they're not,
00:06:12.460 you know,
00:06:13.820 inspired by lust rather than by
00:06:15.580 dignity of the human person.
00:06:17.940 So if you can tell us a little bit more,
00:06:20.980 really about your own conversion,
00:06:22.540 I think that would be really fascinating.
00:06:24.840 Yeah.
00:06:25.280 So I was born and raised Catholic.
00:06:27.260 Great parents, truly.
00:06:28.700 I am so incredibly blessed
00:06:30.160 to live the life that I have.
00:06:32.240 I know that.
00:06:33.200 I know I am.
00:06:34.040 I know that I'm blessed.
00:06:35.020 I'm extremely grateful for it.
00:06:37.480 I grew up on a farm in Oklahoma.
00:06:39.500 I mentioned that
00:06:40.380 because it was a really beautiful upbringing
00:06:42.000 in terms that it gave me space for silence,
00:06:45.460 a lot of silence
00:06:46.400 and a lot of space to,
00:06:48.440 I mean,
00:06:48.880 we had literally a lot of space.
00:06:50.980 I grew up on about 300 or so acres,
00:06:52.920 but I also had the time to sit
00:06:55.740 and think about what I want in life.
00:06:59.860 What does God want for me in life?
00:07:01.200 What are my dreams?
00:07:02.240 What I love to do.
00:07:03.580 I had this opportunity of this space
00:07:05.880 with me and cows
00:07:07.020 to kind of like dream and think
00:07:08.500 and talk to the Lord.
00:07:09.780 And that was really beautiful.
00:07:11.660 That upbringing,
00:07:13.260 and of course,
00:07:13.700 my parents bringing me up in the faith,
00:07:15.140 they were very big on the rosary.
00:07:17.320 Big supporters of Our Lady.
00:07:19.120 They love Our Lady
00:07:19.880 and they love the rosary.
00:07:21.520 And so every night they would gather me
00:07:23.120 and my five younger siblings,
00:07:25.400 I'm the oldest of six,
00:07:26.680 into the living room
00:07:27.500 and we would pray the rosary every night.
00:07:29.400 And before anybody rolls their eyes,
00:07:31.960 we were not the three kids of Fatima.
00:07:33.980 We did not sit there quietly
00:07:35.320 and like we're completely perfect.
00:07:37.140 It was a true experience
00:07:39.460 of virtue for my parents.
00:07:42.020 I mean,
00:07:42.240 my brothers are fighting
00:07:43.340 and poking each other
00:07:44.320 and picking their nose
00:07:45.160 and wiping it on somebody else.
00:07:47.040 My mom is disciplining kids
00:07:48.740 in the middle of the rosary.
00:07:49.800 People are in corners.
00:07:50.620 There's timeouts.
00:07:51.360 Everywhere.
00:07:52.100 Meanwhile,
00:07:52.480 my father is just saying
00:07:53.580 the Hail Marys louder
00:07:54.560 and louder and louder
00:07:56.220 throughout the rosary.
00:07:57.740 At the end of it,
00:07:58.400 it was almost like a screaming match
00:07:59.760 of the rosary,
00:08:00.360 but the rosary was said,
00:08:01.620 like the prayer was said
00:08:02.780 and it was a beautiful experience.
00:08:04.360 And that's how I grew up.
00:08:05.760 We had normal everyday experiences,
00:08:08.160 but prayer was always central.
00:08:09.900 Talking about Jesus was normal.
00:08:12.460 We prayed before meals.
00:08:13.920 We went to mass on Sundays
00:08:15.140 and were involved with our church
00:08:16.420 and our extended family.
00:08:18.620 That's how I was raised.
00:08:19.860 Now,
00:08:20.160 I get to high school
00:08:21.160 and high school,
00:08:22.520 there's a whole new group of friends
00:08:23.620 and I am subject to this new group
00:08:25.920 and new people
00:08:26.720 and new beliefs
00:08:27.520 and new ideas
00:08:28.220 and I kind of succumb
00:08:29.300 to that entire mess.
00:08:31.500 And in doing so
00:08:32.280 and in making mistakes
00:08:33.160 and making sin
00:08:34.040 a part of my life
00:08:35.400 at that point,
00:08:36.480 I began to experience,
00:08:38.400 at 15,
00:08:38.820 I lost my virginity
00:08:39.660 and that was a very big
00:08:41.300 turning point for me.
00:08:42.180 I knew better.
00:08:45.400 I knew I shouldn't.
00:08:46.580 Now, I didn't quite know why,
00:08:48.000 but I knew I shouldn't
00:08:49.020 and that's on me.
00:08:52.140 But the problem with that,
00:08:53.580 and I share that
00:08:54.300 because so many people do this
00:08:56.340 and not just kids,
00:08:57.420 but we engage in a sin
00:08:58.580 that we thought we would never do
00:08:59.700 and then we despair
00:09:03.300 and then we think
00:09:05.060 there's no room for me
00:09:06.120 and shame kind of comes
00:09:08.020 into the space of our mind
00:09:10.220 and just tells us,
00:09:11.820 oh, you should have known better.
00:09:13.220 I can't believe you did that.
00:09:14.960 No one's ever going to love you again
00:09:16.440 or no one's going to forgive you,
00:09:17.680 whatever it might be for you.
00:09:18.800 For me, it was,
00:09:19.900 no one's going to love me.
00:09:21.400 I have made the worst mistake.
00:09:23.080 My parents are those,
00:09:24.040 I mean, I'm the family
00:09:24.820 that sits in the front row of church
00:09:26.100 and here I am.
00:09:27.540 I'm 15 and I feel like
00:09:28.900 I was just, you know, destroyed.
00:09:31.200 I was ruined,
00:09:32.120 that there was no hope for me.
00:09:33.520 And that began at 15,
00:09:34.800 that began my departure
00:09:35.720 from the church.
00:09:36.760 Right then and there,
00:09:37.620 it was shame
00:09:38.260 and I believed the lies of shame.
00:09:40.400 I believed that I wasn't
00:09:41.320 good enough for repentance.
00:09:42.460 I wasn't,
00:09:43.100 that there wasn't a space
00:09:44.040 in the mercy of God for me.
00:09:45.720 I thought church was for you
00:09:47.200 and everybody else.
00:09:47.920 You seem to have great lives,
00:09:49.380 but not for me.
00:09:50.700 And so from 15 to 25,
00:09:52.220 it was this slow departure
00:09:53.320 away from the church.
00:09:55.000 It's not that I didn't,
00:09:56.140 you know, stop believing in God.
00:09:58.040 I just, it's almost like
00:09:59.300 I felt like I had this
00:10:00.360 undue respect for the Lord
00:10:02.340 that I guess I just wasn't worthy.
00:10:03.940 So I should just respectfully
00:10:05.300 bow out of this space,
00:10:07.240 which is a combination
00:10:08.940 of ignorance and pride
00:10:10.360 and who knows what else.
00:10:13.260 Maybe I was just being naive.
00:10:14.460 Either way, that's what I did.
00:10:16.060 And so that experience
00:10:17.500 just led me to explore
00:10:19.300 my spot in the world.
00:10:20.900 I needed to,
00:10:21.300 I wanted to connect.
00:10:22.100 I wanted to feel,
00:10:22.760 you know,
00:10:23.260 validation for who I am.
00:10:24.520 And the church
00:10:25.100 and the faith gives us that.
00:10:27.120 But when you're apart from that,
00:10:28.240 you will look for it elsewhere.
00:10:29.900 You will find other people,
00:10:31.340 other groups
00:10:31.940 to make sure
00:10:33.080 that you feel fit in
00:10:34.020 and that you feel connected.
00:10:36.460 And so culture definitely had,
00:10:38.740 you know,
00:10:39.020 a voice to give me
00:10:41.320 and I listened.
00:10:42.740 And that led me,
00:10:43.900 long story short,
00:10:45.220 that led me all the way
00:10:46.320 to just really diving
00:10:47.640 into the fashion industry,
00:10:48.880 the modeling industry,
00:10:49.760 because culture looked at me
00:10:51.180 and said,
00:10:51.540 oh,
00:10:52.660 well, you're pretty,
00:10:53.660 so you should,
00:10:54.180 of course,
00:10:54.480 be a model.
00:10:54.920 Like it was my only talent
00:10:56.260 and I was insecure
00:10:58.840 and I believed it.
00:11:01.220 And so I went towards that field.
00:11:03.400 I was on America's Next Top Model,
00:11:05.340 that reality TV show.
00:11:06.460 I was on cycle three.
00:11:07.620 After I was eliminated,
00:11:08.760 I stayed in New York
00:11:09.520 and I continued modeling,
00:11:10.860 thinking that this was the dream
00:11:12.100 that I should have.
00:11:13.440 And so the problem here,
00:11:15.820 the crux of the whole issue
00:11:17.700 is that I was living
00:11:18.800 someone else's dream.
00:11:20.440 I was listening to other people,
00:11:22.140 other people's opinions about me,
00:11:23.560 and I was living their dreams for me.
00:11:25.660 I was living by other people's standards
00:11:27.220 in my life.
00:11:28.760 And it all came crashing down
00:11:29.980 in the middle of a fashion photo shoot
00:11:31.680 in New York City,
00:11:32.920 where in that moment,
00:11:34.400 I experienced a moment
00:11:35.640 and a grace from the Holy Spirit
00:11:37.260 where God really touched my heart.
00:11:39.700 And he told me in no less of words,
00:11:42.620 no few of words,
00:11:43.660 I made you for more.
00:11:45.220 And I remember shaking my head
00:11:46.800 in the middle of the photo shoot,
00:11:47.860 thinking I did not just hear that.
00:11:49.960 And it was a moment,
00:11:50.740 and I heard again,
00:11:51.340 I made you for more.
00:11:52.300 I heard it five times.
00:11:54.380 The last two times that I heard it,
00:11:55.900 the emphasis was on the first part.
00:11:57.260 It was, I made you for more.
00:12:00.160 And that was a moment for me.
00:12:02.660 I just couldn't,
00:12:03.640 you know, I couldn't,
00:12:04.400 I couldn't deny.
00:12:05.220 I couldn't,
00:12:06.000 I couldn't deny the truth of that.
00:12:09.700 No matter where it came from,
00:12:11.380 I couldn't deny it.
00:12:12.160 I was like, yes,
00:12:12.660 I was looking around
00:12:13.880 and I was looking at all these people
00:12:14.940 who don't care about me.
00:12:17.540 They don't care what happens to me.
00:12:19.060 They don't definitely
00:12:19.600 don't care about my soul.
00:12:20.520 It's like an all around these people
00:12:21.620 in this industry that I'm in.
00:12:22.740 I'm like, this cannot be what I do
00:12:24.900 to serve people in this world.
00:12:27.480 And so I ended up walking out of the photo shoot
00:12:30.320 and I walked all the way home
00:12:31.360 and I did the only thing a girl could do
00:12:33.700 at that point,
00:12:34.460 which was I called my dad
00:12:35.980 and I called my dad
00:12:38.080 and I just said,
00:12:38.980 if you don't come and get me,
00:12:40.160 I'm going to lose my soul.
00:12:42.180 And I said that verbatim
00:12:43.500 and there was a very long pause
00:12:45.760 and when my dad spoke,
00:12:51.100 he just said,
00:12:51.520 okay, all right, baby,
00:12:53.620 I'm coming to get you.
00:12:54.980 And my dad drove over 2,000 miles
00:12:57.700 to come pick me up
00:12:58.660 just like any good father would do.
00:13:02.520 And that began my journey back home.
00:13:05.840 That began my journey back home
00:13:07.400 to the faith, of course,
00:13:09.980 and to Jesus,
00:13:10.720 but also to who God made Leah to be.
00:13:14.900 And it has been a beautiful process.
00:13:18.380 It is a process
00:13:19.080 that is still unfolding and healing,
00:13:21.060 but I'm here now
00:13:22.180 and I am so grateful
00:13:23.340 and thankful for God's mercy
00:13:24.660 and the generosity he gives me
00:13:26.960 in living a life that's for him
00:13:28.760 in service of others.
00:13:30.340 And that's, yeah,
00:13:31.560 that's a little bit about my story.
00:13:34.660 Wow.
00:13:37.400 Um, there's lots there to unpack.
00:13:41.880 Um, let me rewind first
00:13:44.180 for the sake of parents
00:13:46.260 who are sometimes very discouraged.
00:13:49.460 Young parents with young kids
00:13:51.520 who are praying the rosary
00:13:52.760 are sometimes very discouraged,
00:13:56.120 even when those kids get,
00:13:58.320 maybe particularly when those kids
00:14:00.040 get into their teenage years,
00:14:01.660 because the fights become
00:14:05.040 sitting on the couch,
00:14:08.740 sometimes sleeping,
00:14:11.220 sometimes mumbling,
00:14:13.240 and sometimes worse.
00:14:16.820 That rosary that you now remember,
00:14:19.120 that family rosary,
00:14:21.080 as boring as it was sometimes,
00:14:22.920 as distracted,
00:14:24.520 do you still think it affected you
00:14:28.100 and do you still think it's important?
00:14:30.460 And is it something that you're doing
00:14:31.700 with your kids now?
00:14:32.420 Yes, yes, and yes.
00:14:35.880 So what it did for me in particular
00:14:38.160 is it created a routine.
00:14:41.320 It also connected me
00:14:43.180 in conversation with my creator.
00:14:45.900 So both are incredibly powerful.
00:14:49.160 When you think about,
00:14:50.200 you know, I homeschool my kids
00:14:51.520 and my smaller kids
00:14:54.560 who are not in school yet,
00:14:55.660 I've got six and my oldest is nine,
00:14:57.780 my youngest is one.
00:14:59.060 And so for the three older kids,
00:15:00.760 like we're in school,
00:15:01.440 but the three younger kids,
00:15:03.060 ages four, two, and one,
00:15:05.280 they're listening.
00:15:07.020 They're overhearing stuff going on.
00:15:09.460 And I'll hear my four-year-old
00:15:10.680 pick up and say things
00:15:12.200 that I did not teach him,
00:15:13.960 but he is a part of the routine
00:15:15.600 that's going on
00:15:16.300 and he's picking up information
00:15:17.500 and he's holding on to it.
00:15:19.120 So it's amazing what our children do
00:15:21.720 when we keep to a routine.
00:15:24.080 When we have a routine each night
00:15:26.100 or whatever it is for you
00:15:27.340 of just continuing to come together to pray.
00:15:29.440 You're teaching your child
00:15:31.380 also how to connect
00:15:32.920 and speak and listen to their creator.
00:15:36.340 What a gift that you can give your child
00:15:38.160 of like prayer is normal.
00:15:40.320 Prayer is what I do,
00:15:41.320 even if I don't do it perfectly
00:15:42.640 or if I'm doing it,
00:15:43.980 you know, being pulled,
00:15:44.980 dragged and screaming,
00:15:46.380 but I'm here in it.
00:15:47.740 And that routine of prayer is so needed.
00:15:50.980 The monks have shown us that
00:15:52.500 for, you know,
00:15:54.120 for centuries,
00:15:54.900 just the art of the routine
00:15:57.100 of having these sacred routines
00:15:58.700 in our life
00:15:59.500 is so incredibly important
00:16:01.500 to teach our children
00:16:02.840 how to have a structure
00:16:03.900 and a routine
00:16:04.720 to connect with their creator
00:16:06.700 and to speak to him
00:16:08.560 and listen to him as well.
00:16:11.000 Beautiful.
00:16:13.120 So your conversion
00:16:16.380 is very, very poignant.
00:16:17.340 And your dad,
00:16:23.800 sorry, as a dad myself,
00:16:26.420 you know,
00:16:26.840 with lots of old teens
00:16:30.060 and children in their 20s
00:16:32.240 and so on,
00:16:33.260 that recounting was so powerful.
00:16:37.020 It really, really struck.
00:16:39.020 The journey of 2,000 miles
00:16:44.080 sounds insane,
00:16:46.260 but I think every good dad
00:16:49.600 would, you know,
00:16:54.500 drive a million miles
00:16:55.360 if he could.
00:16:58.760 Wow.
00:17:00.440 Tell us a little bit
00:17:01.800 about your dad,
00:17:03.060 his experience,
00:17:03.900 if you know of it,
00:17:04.860 of doing that
00:17:06.380 and what that
00:17:09.060 specific journey
00:17:10.500 meant to you.
00:17:13.020 So my mom told me
00:17:14.340 years later,
00:17:15.500 my mom told me
00:17:18.100 years later
00:17:18.520 when I had already
00:17:19.520 been sharing this story,
00:17:21.220 she said,
00:17:21.820 I want to tell you
00:17:22.740 something that happened
00:17:23.880 that day.
00:17:24.800 I said, okay.
00:17:26.660 And she says,
00:17:28.300 when we got the call
00:17:29.020 from you,
00:17:29.920 they were always
00:17:30.440 very scared.
00:17:31.080 Let me just back up.
00:17:31.800 They were always
00:17:32.180 very scared
00:17:32.660 to receive a call
00:17:33.620 from New York
00:17:34.340 and to get that
00:17:35.060 212 area code.
00:17:36.380 And back then,
00:17:37.360 caller ID
00:17:37.840 wasn't as sophisticated
00:17:38.980 as it was now.
00:17:40.340 So they would just
00:17:41.320 get this number
00:17:42.020 and they were so scared
00:17:45.540 that it would be
00:17:46.680 somebody from a hospital
00:17:48.040 saying, you know,
00:17:49.140 we have your daughter,
00:17:51.200 you know,
00:17:51.700 she's died from
00:17:52.900 whatever,
00:17:53.360 OD or something
00:17:54.700 happened to her.
00:17:55.680 And they were,
00:17:56.300 and their fears
00:17:57.060 were justified.
00:17:58.920 My life was not
00:18:00.020 on any type
00:18:03.160 of right track.
00:18:03.800 So when they get
00:18:06.400 that call,
00:18:07.820 which I did not
00:18:08.340 call often,
00:18:08.960 they usually called
00:18:09.880 me to check in
00:18:10.560 with me.
00:18:12.100 When they get a call
00:18:13.000 from New York,
00:18:13.660 they run to the phone
00:18:14.800 and mom said,
00:18:15.840 you know,
00:18:16.520 when we got that call,
00:18:17.460 we both were running
00:18:18.520 to the phone
00:18:19.140 and your dad
00:18:21.120 picked up first
00:18:21.980 and I ran upstairs
00:18:23.800 because my dad
00:18:24.660 answered it upstairs
00:18:25.460 and my mom said,
00:18:26.320 she goes,
00:18:26.580 I ran upstairs
00:18:27.340 and dad was
00:18:28.840 sitting on the edge
00:18:31.520 of the bed
00:18:31.900 and he'd already
00:18:32.400 gotten off the phone
00:18:33.000 with you
00:18:33.320 and he just had
00:18:34.000 tears in his eyes
00:18:34.760 and my mom said
00:18:35.420 she was so scared
00:18:36.260 that they had
00:18:38.680 lost me.
00:18:42.280 But my dad turned
00:18:43.420 and he just said,
00:18:44.680 we got her back
00:18:46.240 and,
00:18:48.620 excuse me,
00:18:50.260 but that was
00:18:52.680 really powerful
00:18:54.060 for me to hear
00:18:55.060 as a daughter
00:18:55.740 and the lesson
00:18:58.180 I learned
00:18:58.700 is how much
00:18:59.340 our parents,
00:18:59.880 of course,
00:19:00.080 love us
00:19:00.420 but how much
00:19:00.900 they hurt
00:19:01.320 for us too.
00:19:02.800 That while we're
00:19:03.580 hurting because
00:19:04.440 our lives are not
00:19:05.440 on track,
00:19:06.400 our parents
00:19:07.220 who love us
00:19:07.700 so much
00:19:08.100 are also suffering
00:19:09.000 with us,
00:19:10.220 with us
00:19:11.160 and for us
00:19:11.880 but with us
00:19:12.680 and that redemptive
00:19:14.040 suffering
00:19:14.400 that they were
00:19:15.400 experiencing for me
00:19:16.880 and all the prayers,
00:19:18.260 it was all going
00:19:19.040 towards this greater
00:19:19.980 good of
00:19:20.720 honestly
00:19:21.720 saving my life
00:19:23.160 at that time
00:19:25.060 and so
00:19:26.100 my mom then
00:19:27.840 tells me
00:19:28.260 that my dad
00:19:28.800 just immediately
00:19:29.340 grabbed his
00:19:30.020 duffel bag
00:19:30.720 underneath the bed
00:19:31.760 and he just
00:19:32.240 started throwing
00:19:33.280 socks and underwear
00:19:34.760 into this bag
00:19:35.980 and my mom's
00:19:36.960 like screaming
00:19:37.460 from the other
00:19:38.020 side of the bed
00:19:38.600 saying,
00:19:38.980 Patrick,
00:19:39.440 you have to
00:19:40.080 pack pants,
00:19:41.020 like pack pants
00:19:41.920 and just reminding
00:19:43.500 him of what to pack
00:19:44.300 but he literally
00:19:45.440 left that moment.
00:19:47.340 He dropped
00:19:48.220 everything
00:19:49.040 my dad
00:19:50.120 is a dad
00:19:50.480 of six kids,
00:19:51.320 he has a full-time
00:19:52.200 job that supports
00:19:53.060 our family
00:19:53.680 and he left
00:19:54.660 everything
00:19:55.240 and he got
00:19:55.820 in the car
00:19:56.200 and just drove
00:19:57.100 east to New York
00:19:58.960 and he
00:20:00.360 did what every
00:20:01.920 dad I pray
00:20:02.700 would do
00:20:03.860 for their daughter
00:20:04.600 who is
00:20:05.300 at the point
00:20:06.680 of despair
00:20:07.840 is that he comes
00:20:09.100 and he rescues us
00:20:11.200 and he was just
00:20:11.940 looking back
00:20:13.120 on it now
00:20:13.580 I just see
00:20:14.020 this incredible
00:20:14.840 example of my
00:20:15.900 dad embodying
00:20:17.560 God the Father
00:20:19.320 of what God
00:20:20.180 the Father
00:20:20.560 wants and
00:20:21.580 desires to do
00:20:22.320 for every single
00:20:22.960 one of us
00:20:23.460 is just to come
00:20:24.200 and rescue
00:20:24.660 and to be there.
00:20:27.180 Wow.
00:20:28.860 Oh that
00:20:29.620 all dads
00:20:31.360 could follow
00:20:31.800 your dad's
00:20:32.260 example.
00:20:34.620 Beautiful.
00:20:35.060 I wanted to
00:20:37.600 ask you as well
00:20:38.460 about social
00:20:41.860 media.
00:20:43.340 There are
00:20:44.380 very many
00:20:46.200 messages given
00:20:46.980 to women on
00:20:47.620 social media
00:20:48.160 to young women
00:20:49.280 to even older
00:20:49.960 women now
00:20:50.420 because we've
00:20:51.780 spanned the
00:20:52.260 generations.
00:20:53.580 What's your
00:20:54.480 message for
00:20:55.140 women affected
00:20:55.980 by social media
00:20:56.660 and confronted
00:20:57.120 by it?
00:20:59.120 Well there's
00:20:59.900 a few there
00:21:00.520 but one is
00:21:01.720 that your
00:21:02.780 dream for your
00:21:03.480 life the dream
00:21:04.240 that God has
00:21:04.700 placed on your
00:21:05.240 heart and
00:21:05.720 there's probably
00:21:06.220 many of them
00:21:06.920 it deserves
00:21:08.580 to take up
00:21:09.540 space in your
00:21:10.780 life.
00:21:12.280 Your dream
00:21:13.040 is worth
00:21:13.420 pursuing.
00:21:14.660 It's worth
00:21:15.480 pursuing and
00:21:16.880 as you start
00:21:17.760 pursuing those
00:21:18.600 dreams that God
00:21:19.460 has given you
00:21:20.120 and trust me
00:21:21.200 you're going to
00:21:22.140 kind of fumble
00:21:22.620 along the way
00:21:23.400 but God is
00:21:24.520 patient and he
00:21:25.220 helps us
00:21:25.660 recalibrate to
00:21:26.500 keep us on
00:21:27.040 track.
00:21:27.460 Maybe we think
00:21:27.980 we're going to
00:21:28.260 do one thing
00:21:28.820 and God's
00:21:29.140 like okay we
00:21:29.580 can start there
00:21:30.160 and then I'll
00:21:30.660 pivot at the
00:21:31.740 next turn and
00:21:33.120 we can just
00:21:33.580 have confidence
00:21:34.320 and trust in
00:21:35.180 the Lord that
00:21:36.000 as we work to
00:21:36.700 fulfill these
00:21:37.200 dreams that
00:21:37.600 are on our
00:21:38.000 heart that he
00:21:38.620 will continue
00:21:39.120 to recalibrate
00:21:39.920 and keep us
00:21:40.460 on that path
00:21:41.120 but as you
00:21:42.140 do that and
00:21:42.780 as you start
00:21:43.400 growing and
00:21:44.080 you start
00:21:44.340 putting yourself
00:21:44.960 out there and
00:21:45.540 you start
00:21:45.820 fulfilling those
00:21:46.420 dreams you got
00:21:47.500 to know that
00:21:48.020 other people are
00:21:49.420 going to have
00:21:50.100 an opinion about
00:21:51.240 what you're doing
00:21:52.080 and how you're
00:21:52.720 doing it and
00:21:54.280 just remember I
00:21:55.340 saw this on
00:21:56.380 social media and
00:21:57.040 I thought it was
00:21:57.520 great it's not
00:21:58.120 my own but I
00:21:58.720 saw it and it
00:21:59.100 said your dream
00:22:00.380 and your vision
00:22:01.060 for your life
00:22:01.900 with God is not
00:22:03.180 a conference call
00:22:04.080 it is a one-on-one
00:22:05.620 conversation between
00:22:06.580 you and the
00:22:07.100 Lord and other
00:22:07.740 people's opinions
00:22:08.640 they're just other
00:22:10.160 people's opinions
00:22:10.900 and they don't
00:22:11.580 get a say in
00:22:12.880 your mission that
00:22:14.080 the Lord has in
00:22:14.880 store for you
00:22:15.460 and if your
00:22:16.380 mission by the
00:22:17.020 way ladies is
00:22:19.080 to have a
00:22:20.100 family to be
00:22:21.360 home with your
00:22:21.900 babies that's a
00:22:22.720 phenomenal mission
00:22:23.740 that's an amazing
00:22:25.160 dream like we
00:22:26.540 sometimes think of
00:22:27.400 these dreams as
00:22:28.200 like just like
00:22:28.780 entrepreneurial ideas
00:22:30.060 or like a business
00:22:30.800 idea but that
00:22:31.480 that's not it
00:22:32.080 like sometimes
00:22:33.120 dreams for me
00:22:33.900 are I want a
00:22:35.480 clean and ordered
00:22:36.140 home my some
00:22:38.080 of my dreams are
00:22:38.800 like making a
00:22:39.540 home-cooked meal
00:22:40.140 every night for
00:22:40.920 my family you
00:22:42.140 know or at least
00:22:42.580 five out of the
00:22:43.240 seven nights those
00:22:44.720 are great dreams
00:22:45.760 whatever your dream
00:22:46.820 is big small tiny
00:22:48.340 whatever it might
00:22:49.200 be it's worth
00:22:50.120 pursuing and you
00:22:51.560 have to remember
00:22:52.140 that there's always
00:22:52.800 going to be people
00:22:53.500 out there especially
00:22:54.420 on social media that
00:22:55.920 are not going to
00:22:56.440 love you not going
00:22:57.120 to support you but
00:22:57.860 keep in mind they
00:22:58.740 weren't invited into
00:22:59.680 that call with you
00:23:00.500 and the Lord
00:23:00.960 beautiful one of
00:23:04.160 the things that
00:23:05.240 happens nowadays
00:23:07.960 is there is an
00:23:09.160 intrusion you know
00:23:11.480 there's a lot of
00:23:12.480 moms who help
00:23:15.340 actually a lot of
00:23:16.580 other women with
00:23:17.680 advice I know you
00:23:18.780 do that an awful
00:23:19.620 lot but there is
00:23:21.480 something nowadays
00:23:22.300 that tends to
00:23:24.360 dislike what you
00:23:25.360 might say
00:23:25.800 particularly if you
00:23:26.840 hit on particular
00:23:28.020 topics that are
00:23:29.300 out of vogue
00:23:31.800 let's say or
00:23:32.660 what the media
00:23:34.040 censors don't like
00:23:34.780 and then there's
00:23:35.200 censorship have
00:23:36.360 you yourself faced
00:23:37.060 any of that
00:23:37.480 cancel culture
00:23:38.120 yeah absolutely
00:23:39.900 I currently am
00:23:41.420 facing it right now
00:23:42.480 on my Facebook
00:23:43.420 page for some
00:23:44.540 reason it
00:23:45.520 happened shortly
00:23:46.240 after let's
00:23:48.540 see 29
00:23:49.380 2020 January
00:23:50.800 2020 shortly
00:23:51.740 after that I
00:23:52.400 become I began
00:23:53.580 becoming censored
00:23:54.760 on Facebook after
00:23:55.660 I posted my
00:23:57.400 post an article
00:23:59.040 a video of my
00:23:59.980 response to
00:24:00.660 Michelle Williams
00:24:01.400 when she attributed
00:24:02.600 her golden globe
00:24:04.280 to her to the
00:24:05.260 abortion that she
00:24:06.480 had so that she
00:24:07.300 could make this
00:24:07.860 particular film or
00:24:09.100 movie I was
00:24:10.600 actually in labor
00:24:11.240 with my fifth baby
00:24:12.160 at the time and
00:24:13.220 I call it as you
00:24:15.060 know being guided
00:24:16.160 by the Holy Spirit
00:24:16.980 but I decided in the
00:24:17.920 middle of early
00:24:18.740 labor keep that in
00:24:19.700 mind it was early
00:24:20.340 labor I posted a
00:24:21.700 video and I was
00:24:22.340 like look I'm having
00:24:23.040 my fifth baby
00:24:23.720 babies don't keep
00:24:25.020 you from your
00:24:25.440 dreams in fact
00:24:26.060 they are the dream
00:24:26.960 and they make our
00:24:27.820 dreams more fruitful
00:24:28.660 and better than you
00:24:29.960 ever could imagine
00:24:30.680 and so I gave that
00:24:31.500 message since then
00:24:32.800 Facebook has
00:24:33.480 definitely censored
00:24:34.380 me and my growth
00:24:35.380 completely since that
00:24:37.140 time but you know
00:24:38.900 there's other
00:24:39.300 different types of
00:24:39.980 cancel there's also
00:24:41.100 we often think about
00:24:42.040 canceling from the
00:24:42.940 outside like the
00:24:43.800 secular world onto
00:24:44.800 the onto the
00:24:45.840 Christian world but
00:24:47.040 there's canceling
00:24:48.080 within the Christian
00:24:49.860 and Catholic world I
00:24:51.500 mean I currently just
00:24:52.480 experienced that right
00:24:53.400 now I launched my
00:24:54.180 new program power
00:24:55.080 made perfect which
00:24:56.800 is a coaching
00:24:57.420 program in and
00:24:58.700 personal development
00:24:59.500 personal growth it's
00:25:01.340 not spiritual formation
00:25:02.360 it's not therapy it's
00:25:03.420 personal growth but in
00:25:04.880 that and in launching
00:25:05.940 that there was a slew
00:25:08.000 of fellow my fellow
00:25:10.200 Christians my fellow
00:25:11.920 Catholics who are
00:25:13.040 attempting to cancel
00:25:13.900 what I'm doing most
00:25:15.440 of them misunderstanding
00:25:16.440 the message or maybe
00:25:18.380 they just don't like me
00:25:19.440 but there's you you get
00:25:20.720 this type of cancel
00:25:21.620 culture everywhere and
00:25:23.780 we shouldn't be naive
00:25:24.640 to think that it's
00:25:25.320 just from the secular
00:25:26.040 world there's a lot
00:25:27.420 of canceling within the
00:25:28.620 church that is also
00:25:29.720 trying to happen as
00:25:30.940 well absolutely tell us
00:25:34.460 a little bit more about
00:25:35.240 that about your new
00:25:35.900 program yeah so power
00:25:37.660 made perfect is a 14
00:25:39.480 week program it's a
00:25:41.280 Christo centric
00:25:42.440 approach to personal
00:25:43.480 development so I love
00:25:45.600 personal development I've
00:25:46.740 been into that world and
00:25:47.980 taking a lot of
00:25:48.620 programs from a lot of
00:25:49.660 different people in the
00:25:50.400 personal development
00:25:50.920 world for the past easy
00:25:52.200 10 years and I've
00:25:54.040 taken them all and I
00:25:54.840 love them I have my
00:25:56.200 master's in theology and
00:25:57.340 so you know thank God I
00:25:59.040 was able to kind of you
00:25:59.900 know put in what I've
00:26:01.260 learned and through
00:26:02.120 reading and through my
00:26:02.960 studies to kind of fill
00:26:04.180 the gap of that space
00:26:05.540 between the personal
00:26:06.400 development world the
00:26:07.580 secular world that it is
00:26:08.700 and then you know my
00:26:09.540 beliefs and my faith and
00:26:11.200 it's kind of come it kind
00:26:12.160 of came to a point in my
00:26:13.420 speaking career I've been
00:26:14.340 speaking now for 14 years
00:26:16.040 and I've been talking to
00:26:17.600 literally hundreds
00:26:18.380 thousands of women and
00:26:20.680 over these 14 years the
00:26:22.240 questions that I usually
00:26:23.260 get the help that they're
00:26:24.460 asking me for is actually
00:26:26.200 not spiritual formation
00:26:27.700 they're more human
00:26:29.100 formation elements it's
00:26:30.420 how do I forgive myself
00:26:31.520 how do I have a better
00:26:32.320 routine how do I make
00:26:33.580 this happen in my life
00:26:34.620 how do I make my my my
00:26:36.060 dreams how do I know if
00:26:37.020 this dream is from God or
00:26:38.040 not they're more on the
00:26:39.480 human formation side and
00:26:41.440 so that spurred this
00:26:43.800 interest in this desire in
00:26:45.360 my heart to just help
00:26:46.440 people in that particular
00:26:47.420 area to become a high
00:26:48.920 performer in your life
00:26:50.480 with Christ at the center
00:26:52.540 with Christ at the center
00:26:53.900 and so that's what this
00:26:55.060 program does it's a 14
00:26:56.220 week online group group
00:26:57.640 coaching program where I
00:26:59.240 guide people through this
00:27:00.220 process we've divided the
00:27:01.840 program into the first
00:27:02.780 half which is restoration
00:27:03.940 and that's really just
00:27:05.340 kind of working on that
00:27:06.220 interior life and then
00:27:07.700 the second half is
00:27:08.460 resurrection where we
00:27:09.380 really start putting into
00:27:10.300 practice all of those
00:27:11.200 great skills into our life
00:27:12.380 to make those dreams
00:27:13.040 happen just because people
00:27:15.760 might be interested in
00:27:16.480 right now what it's a
00:27:17.300 called and what's the
00:27:17.880 website sure it's called
00:27:19.300 power made perfect it's
00:27:21.100 from second Corinthians
00:27:22.340 12 9 where Jesus says
00:27:24.020 my grace is sufficient for
00:27:25.500 you for my power is made
00:27:26.860 perfect in weakness and
00:27:28.580 again you can find all of
00:27:29.740 that at leah darrow dot com
00:27:31.740 leah darrow dot com you can
00:27:33.580 go there and go to my
00:27:34.500 coaching page and you'll see
00:27:35.740 the program and all that it
00:27:36.740 has to offer excellent
00:27:39.060 excellent now those who
00:27:40.560 follow you on social media
00:27:41.600 will often see hashtag
00:27:44.660 babies and dreams what's
00:27:46.300 that all about that came
00:27:48.340 from actually that post
00:27:49.960 that I put out in response
00:27:51.320 to Michelle Williams and
00:27:53.300 that was gosh that was
00:27:54.840 over two and a half years
00:27:55.840 ago now and that was just
00:27:57.420 what I did I just did
00:27:58.340 hashtag babies and dreams
00:27:59.660 after that post I've just
00:28:01.440 it just seemed to be
00:28:02.220 obvious like babies and
00:28:03.680 dreams go together do we
00:28:04.680 not know this is this like a
00:28:05.820 new thing that women were
00:28:07.440 not were like we're told
00:28:08.460 and it seems to be the
00:28:10.380 case it seems to be that
00:28:11.460 so many young women think
00:28:13.020 that if they get married
00:28:14.640 and have babies it is the
00:28:15.860 end of your dreams that
00:28:17.100 babies crush and they kill
00:28:18.940 dreams that's absolutely
00:28:20.880 not the case the only thing
00:28:22.180 that kills dreams is
00:28:23.180 killing a baby they don't
00:28:24.560 even get to experience the
00:28:25.540 dream and so the the whole
00:28:27.720 hashtag of babies and
00:28:28.900 dreams is just a space and
00:28:30.920 a movement where we can
00:28:32.440 support women to continue
00:28:34.440 following their dreams of
00:28:35.620 being a mother being
00:28:36.400 whatever God has given
00:28:37.340 them and having their
00:28:38.720 having their family too
00:28:39.900 beautiful and just to to
00:28:44.940 round everything up Leah
00:28:46.320 I thought I'd ask you
00:28:47.500 about your relationship to
00:28:50.840 the woman our mother of
00:28:53.660 God Mary most holy I know
00:28:54.640 is a great inspiration for
00:28:55.900 you in fact I believe you
00:28:56.740 consecrated your marriage to
00:28:58.360 our lady tell us about the
00:28:59.960 consecration why you did
00:29:00.740 that and what our lady
00:29:02.320 means to you well she's
00:29:05.700 right there she's kind of
00:29:06.400 the hinge right to so many
00:29:08.560 things the consecration to
00:29:11.560 our lady and for my
00:29:13.060 marriage Ricky and I
00:29:14.840 decided to do that that
00:29:16.060 was a family tradition is a
00:29:18.260 family tradition to my
00:29:19.080 family you know from my own
00:29:21.980 parents to all of my
00:29:23.120 aunts and uncles to my
00:29:24.220 grandparents and I think
00:29:25.320 my great-grandparents and
00:29:26.380 this is something that down
00:29:27.480 the line of my family we've
00:29:30.420 always done and this this
00:29:32.180 little prayer and a little
00:29:32.920 piece of paper has been
00:29:34.520 passed on to every single
00:29:35.760 person and now we just
00:29:36.740 take pictures of it we
00:29:38.220 pull up our phone and we
00:29:39.120 say this prayer and I even
00:29:40.900 have aunts who have hand
00:29:42.760 stitched and like hand
00:29:44.020 stitched the prayer on a
00:29:45.300 piece of cloth and frame it
00:29:46.560 in their home like it is just
00:29:47.580 a thing in our family because
00:29:49.660 we know that our lady guides
00:29:51.320 us to Christ and that is her
00:29:52.940 job it's just this constant
00:29:54.640 direction pointing to Christ
00:29:56.860 and so we need all the help we
00:30:00.180 can get in this world this
00:30:01.480 world is tough and so when it
00:30:03.480 comes to marriage absolutely
00:30:05.280 it's a marriage is an elite
00:30:07.940 club for selfless people you
00:30:09.980 know and it's it's it's a
00:30:12.280 hard one to stay in let me
00:30:13.540 tell you but it's absolutely
00:30:14.580 worth it and so our lady is
00:30:15.840 there to help us along the way
00:30:17.480 with that we've also
00:30:18.420 consecrated all of our
00:30:19.320 children to our lady to Jesus
00:30:21.480 through Mary at their at
00:30:23.500 their baptisms as well and
00:30:25.460 it's I think it's something
00:30:27.040 important to remember that the
00:30:28.100 consecration is not enough I
00:30:30.780 think sometimes you know we
00:30:32.100 can't be too transactional with
00:30:35.680 our faith like well if I do
00:30:36.900 this I get this it's it's the
00:30:40.200 daily thought it's the turning
00:30:43.080 of the heart every day it's the
00:30:45.200 working on it every single day
00:30:46.520 that's what changes the prayer
00:30:49.420 itself doesn't change you
00:30:51.000 believing that prayer and
00:30:52.500 practicing the prayer not by
00:30:54.360 words but by actions is what
00:30:56.080 changes us and so the prayer is
00:30:59.200 beautiful and it's a beautiful
00:31:00.400 act but if you say that prayer
00:31:02.240 and then you do nothing not a
00:31:05.000 lot will happen outside of God's
00:31:06.760 grace of course but we have to
00:31:08.820 take action in our life to be
00:31:10.140 that active player so that we
00:31:12.180 know that life our life and our
00:31:14.300 prayer life is not just this
00:31:15.660 prayer of transactions where I
00:31:17.520 said this prayer and I should get
00:31:18.660 this I say this prayer and I
00:31:20.540 should be closer to Jesus what are
00:31:22.180 we doing with that prayer are you
00:31:23.640 living the prayer or are you just
00:31:25.720 saying the prayer and so when it
00:31:27.640 comes to the consecration when it
00:31:28.880 comes to any prayer that we do in
00:31:30.100 our life for our families for our
00:31:31.340 marriages for our children we need
00:31:33.000 to make sure that we're putting
00:31:33.800 into action the prayers that we say
00:31:36.200 beautiful
