Invite Lindy to Speak or Lead a Retreat
photo by Richardson, Bridget R.
A women's retreat once changed Lindy's life. She walked through the doors carrying a weight she was sure no one else could understand. Twenty-six hours later, she walked out transformed.
The next year, kneeling in the Adoration chapel before a retreat she was helping lead, she heard Christ say: You will be with them for a moment. I will be with them forever. Guide them to my heart. That has been her work ever since.
For eight years, Lindy has brought that warmth, honesty, and grace to Mamas in Spirit listeners, and to retreats and conferences across the country. She tells the truth about her own story, makes room for every woman's, and points each heart beyond herself to the One it has been thirsting for.
I cried happy tears through most of the retreat. You touched every woman's heart in the room, and I'm still reflecting on your message and looking for ways to live it. -Peggy, St. Lawrence Martyr Catholic Church
Whether you're planning a women's retreat, a parish mission, a conference, or a day of recollection, bring Lindy to your community. [Send a message →]
About Lindy
Lindy Wynne met God as a nine-year-old on the rocks beside a levee, and has spent her life since pointing others toward the same Living Water. She is the founder of Mamas in Spirit Catholic Ministry for Women and has hosted the Mamas in Spirit podcast for seven years. The name came home with her from a college immersion trip to an orphanage in Mexico, where the little girls were lovingly called mama — a word that held, all at once, God's tenderness toward his daughters, the call to spiritual motherhood, and Our Blessed Mother, whom Christ gave us from the Cross: "Behold, your mother" (John 19:27). Baptized at Mission Santa Clara in 1999, she came into the Catholic Church at twenty-two and holds a Master's in Pastoral Care and Counseling, with seventeen years in professional ministry.

She has also spoken at Boston College, Loyola Marymount University, Servite High School’s Mothers’ Day of Reflection, Chesterton High School’s Mothers’ Evening of Reflection, and the Juan Diego House of Seminarian Formation, along with retreats at Catholic parishes across the country.

Mamas in Spirit is featured on EWTN’s “Best of the Rest” podcasts and has been broadcast on Nashville’s Hippie Radio 94.5.
At Home
The heart of Lindy’s life is her marriage to her husband, Brian, of twenty-five years — they were married at Mission Santa Clara, the same church where she was baptized — and caring for their three children, all of whom are adopted (ages 10, 23, and 26). The Wynne family’s home chapel has been featured in the National Catholic Register, along with their reflections on foster care and adoption. Lindy lives in the greater Nashville area and was named the 2025 Tennessee Mother of the Year® by American Mothers, Inc.®
