My book Piety and Personality: The Temperaments of the Saints, is available from TAN Books, and I'm currently working on the next one - Paths to His Heart: Traveling with the Saints. A former news journalist, flight attendant and Catholic bookseller, I am a lifelong Catholic reader, writer, and traveler who lives and homeschools in a house filled with Catholic books.

I write weekly articles on Substack and post about Catholic travel on Instagram @rosemary.writer. It is my privilege to help Catholics craft the pilgrimage of their dreams, especially to Ireland (my ancestral homeland and personal favorite, seen here at the church of St. Brigid in Kildare). I show you the hidden gems, help you plan your days, and curate the activities for you.

Visiting the Saints draws us closer to them, and helps us to know them as real people. Once we connect with them, we can understand their Paths to the Heart of Christ, which in turn helps us find our own unique paths to sanctity. Book a call with me to talk about your trip to Ireland, reach out to me about other countries, and check out my resources for tip sheets on places that are filled with rich Catholic experiences and history!
