Our Why
At the heart of TOBTalks lies a vision deeply personal to us — the hope for our children, Mateo, Raquel, and Samuel, to grow with a more enlightened perspective on sexuality than we had. We have witnessed firsthand how secular culture can shape perceptions and expectations, often in ways that don't align with our faith and values.
Our journey began with a simple yet profound desire: to equip our own children with the clarity, confidence, and resilience to navigate their sexuality and relationships. We wanted them to recognize the beauty and sacredness inherent in their bodies and spirits — a recognition that we, like many of our generation, struggled to find amidst the noise of the world.
Our mission with TOBTalks extends this ambition to all families. We strive to offer a new lens — one that is clear and rooted in the rich teachings of Theology of the Body. It's not just about imparting knowledge; it's about fostering an environment where our youth can critically evaluate the cultural messages they receive daily and discern their path with courage and faith.
As parents, we dream of a future where our children, and yours, can seek and cherish qualities in their future spouses that reflect a deep understanding and respect for the divine purpose of their sexuality. Whether called to marriage or a different vocation, we hope they move forward in life equipped with a sense of purpose and a commitment to uphold the dignity of every human being.
