The Catholic Working Mom’s Guide to Life
“JoAnna Wahlund did more than live her life. She stepped back and analyzed her situation as Catholic Working mom, tackled the taboos, and now she provides the modern woman of faith a reasoned, can-do guide through all the major questions and dilemmas Catholic women in the workforce encounter. This book elegantly furthers the beauty of feminine genius more than any other in our time.”
—Stacy Trasancos, wife, mother, nationally recognized author, speaker, and educator on the topic of theology and science
“As the creator and head fangirl at Catholic Working Mothers (FB), JoAnna Wahlund writes with pragmatism and empathy to those whose vocations include not just frying the bacon, but bringing it home as well. Regardless of why, where, or how much you work, this book will help you keep your priorities straight, your family close, and your soul connected to the God who sees it all … and loves you more than you can imagine anyway.”
—Heidi Hess Saxton, author and blogger, Life on the Road Less Traveled
“Whether you love your job or hate it, whether you are expecting your first baby or navigating child care for many kids, you will find a trusted companion in JoAnna’s words—sage advice, helpful hints, and encouragement that you are never alone. Return to this book whenever you need to find peace in the multiple ways God has called you to share your love and spend your life, at home and at work!”
—Laura Kelly Fanucci, author of Everyday Sacrament: The Messy Grace of Parenting and Grieving Together: A Couple’s Journey through Miscarriage
“The Catholic Working Mom’s Guide to Life builds up Catholic womanhood by respectfully highlighting a large group of women who are often ignored or even shamed. JoAnna rallies all women to support one another in their vocations and shares relatable anecdotes to grow empathy and sisterhood. Wahlund is smart, strong, and incredibly approachable as a writer and shares helpful facts and insights so working moms can thrive in their careers and homes. I am convinced that all Catholic women should read this book so we can better support our sisters in Christ.”
—Bonnie L. Engstrom, speaker, author, and blogger at A Knotted Life

It’s practical and authentically Catholic guidance and advice — beginning and ending with the reminder to pray, pray, pray to discern God’s will, and including the teachings of the Church and the examples set by saints who were working mothers — making it an essential resource for all women who have both babies and bosses.”
—Kate Morna Towne, mother, freelance writer, blogger at SanctaNomina.net, and author of Catholic Baby Names for Girls and Boys: Over 250 Ways to Honor Our Lady

Workplace moms and stay-at-home-moms alike will benefit from the wisdom in these pages. Ultimately, this book is a pro-life work as it brings about understanding and highlights dignity across vocations.”

“I can always count on JoAnna Wahlund to get to the meat of the issue, cutting to the heart of the matter with chapter and verse of supporting arguments from the Catechism, Holy Scripture, and the lives of the saints. Wahlund is so good at pointing us back to the Church’s love and shepherding in a logical, accessible, and heartfelt manner. I am honored to have my story included in its pages and I heartily recommend it to any woman — or man — who needs a guidance in discerning their vocation as a parent.”
