the BabeAF podcast

We’re baaaack, baby! 🙌 After a little break, BabeAF is back in your earbuds and we’re kicking it off with some sunshine for your soul. This week we’re talking about the magic of dropping your routine, hopping on a plane, and letting the ocean breeze, sunburned skin, and belly laughs with your favorite people RESET your whole vibe.

From family reunions that feel like therapy (or adorable chaos in the form of my favorite toddler 👀) ...

What happens when you try something new?!

Whether it’s a new class, attending an event or really just getting outside- When you try something new, a lot of things happen—both externally and internally. Here’s a breakdown:

1. ​Your brain lights up.

Literally. New experiences activate the brain’s reward system and spark the growth of new neural pathways, especially in areas related to learning and memory. You’re rewiring yourself—...

Edit: this is episode 197 not 200 😝😜

Today’s episode is a celebration of the divine gift of sisterhood.

Inspired by the touching poem “Keep Your Girlfriends” from achristianhome.org, we’re diving into the sacred bond between women who hold each other up through every season. From whispered prayers to belly laughs, girlfriends are God’s way of saying “You don’t have to walk this life alone.”

Tune in as we unpack the beauty of friend...

Affirming the week ahead could be crucial to how your week can play out or a pivoted opportunity for yourself at each and any moment.

I want you to know that it never gets easier and you're never going to have it all figured out BUT if you continually fill yourself full of doubt instead of divine confidence, the world in which you l...

This is your permission slip to stay in the pool of grief with an arm out of the water so someone can help pull you out. Yesterday, our plott hound of 13 years passed away on the arm of my husband, covered in a blanket from my parents (thank you Momma & Poppa Rose for letting me steal that comforter years ago, it was his favorite), in his sleep. That boy was the best and for now, that’s all I have for you.

Except one more thing ...

honestly, the time together is great, but the time apart living in your individuality reigns supreme. of course, not all the time, but at least enough time so that you feel centered, challenged and cherished. for yourself, in order to make yourself the best presence for others and remain grateful in those relationships: the ones you've always had, the ones you're nurturing and those you've left behind. Challenge yourself this week ...

Let’s Grow!
