Loretto women of wisdom!

Posted on October 13, 2025, by Loretto Community

There is always light.
If only we are brave enough to see it! 
If only we are brave enough to be it!

Amanda Gorman, From the Inauguration of President Biden

Many Loretto women we know are women of wisdom! They are and have been brave enough to see and act on the light given to them. We could write books about them because their stories touch our life and the lives of the many they serve.

They are light, always light! This week we feature wisdom for some of our members. We asked them to tell us: “What wisdom/advice would you give your younger self?” Their answers are from the heart, thought-provoking, moving, funny and always insightful – they sum up Loretto!

Loretto is grateful for our wisdom women!

To get things started, please enjoy wisdom from Anna Koop SL, shared with her usual gentle humor and sincerity.

Anna Koop SL shares her advice for her younger self.
