Your Toxic Trait Has a Patron Saint
About this episode
The episode explores how common toxic traits can be associated with specific Saints who exemplify a better way of living.
What if your biggest toxic trait could actually point you toward the Saint you need most? Fr. Patrick and Fr. Joseph-Anthony take on some of today’s most common “toxic traits” and pair them with the Saints who show us a better way. They tackle everything from narcissism and holding grudges to ghosting, impulsivity, FOMO, and gaslighting. As shown through the lives of the Saints, the friars clarify that holiness doesn’t entail losing your personality. Christ sanctified the Saints' unique personalities, weaknesses, strengths, and struggles—and He wants to do the same with us. your toxic trait and the Saint you would pair it with?
