Maria Rodgers O'Rourke

Maria Rodgers O’Rourke is a mom, wife, author, and speaker who cries at movies. Her favorite things include music, scarves, baseball, autumn, thrift stores, and her family’s laughter. She’s still trying to figure out what she wants to be when she grows up, but she’s pretty sure it will include watching her daughters do the same. Her podcast is called Everyday Inspired and you can find her work in Chicken Soup for the Soul and on the Huffington Post blog.

In her retreats, workshops and writing, she blends wisdom, humor and down-to-earth spirituality. Maria has over 20 years of experience in communications and nonprofit management, and holds a Master's Degree in Pastoral Studies. Maria and her husband have been married for over 22 years and have two children.
