There are not many times in a woman's life where we can just chill the fuck out in a way that entirely authentic, loved, and enjoyed by other women. And luckily, all thanks to Charly Pope and her amazing foundation of @grownassladycamp, she brings all good times to light and love and an opportunity for all of us to come together each year with our weekend with each other. This year, I had the opportunity to be a counselor and what I didn't realize is the additional badassery that would ensue with a weekend away with some badass babes. I mean GAL camp is like nothing I've ever experienced and sometimes when you hear 'you've got to see it to believe it' this is one of those instances. So while my new and old friends explain to you what makes them feel confidence through the weekend, @karinadeang's must have list and close out by the adorable Erin (aka most spirited award recipient), its definitely something that you have to experience yourself.  So without further adieu, I give you, GALCAMP 2022. 

We were both born in 1981 and played sports but WE ARE NOT THE SAME, me and Serena Williams. and that's alright by me.  I adored watching tennis w my Gran as a kid, from the greats like Martina and Monica to seeing girls my own age really dominant in their sport (from the Magnificent Seven to the Williams' sisters) I had it made when it came to icons and role models in athletics as I was growing up. The encouragement to try and be great enough for me was always a staple that sweet Alberta made me realize at a young age. I knew that I wasn't going to go pro or win an Olympic medal but taking some of the tactics and encouragement from the women I saw in sports was a huge asset to the woman I've become today. Now, on to the GOAT that is Serena Williams.  There are so many articles, videos, even a new MOVIE, but what caught my eye is the latest VOGUE magazine with her on the cover announcing that she's be 'evolving' from tennis in the near future. I love that she uses the word 'evolution' instead of retirement because if you know anything about athletes or people that are even passionate about anything, that love and legendary accomplishments can never die, even if you're no longer active in the arena babes. The fire lives and breathes inside you as a human and its up to you to transition, pivot and keep that fire alive no matter the adventure.  Thanks to wikipedia, the vogue article as of 08/09/2022 (written by Rob Haskell & Serena Williams) and the sweet snippet of the FULL AMAZING fashion timeline of some of her greatest outfits (you know I had to include the fashion fun in there), see the full video here: https://www.vogue.com/video/watch/life-in-looks-serena-williams Long live the Tennis Icon & Queen, we can't wait to see what you accomplish next, go on and be BABEAF, Serena, its all yours for the taking. 

Intimacy can be a really trick thing to grasp the concept of and even know the different ways to be intimate! Dr. Susanne from @mymentalhealthspace is helping us break down some great types of intimacy, checking on some road blocks along with ways to explore and get better. After the ad, Molly Burford (@mollyburford) is helping us find new and exciting ways to be intimate too! Thank you ladies for your great social media posts and the assist in todays episode!

As a former college athlete, equality in sports as well as education is at the forefront as to part of the reason as to why i became an educator and still love playing golf. I didn’t really know about the extent of Title IX in education and some great ladies have been blazing their own trails at the inauguration and today to make all equality happen! So great women to get to know in this ediposde is Jeanne Foley & Aldra Allison from St Olaf college during the mid 70’s when the laws went into affect along with Sedona Prince & Dominique Dawes in more present times! Check out the resources here : Foley & Allison article: https://wp.stolaf.edu/news/title-ix-turns-50-a-conversation-with-two-trailblazers and the great take on Prince & Dawes on @goodmorningamerica: https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/culture/video/sedona-prince-dominique-dawes-break-herstory-title-ix-83589041 I love learning from powerful women each week & I hope you are too!

In 2020 sweet Karina and I made this post and it definitely still resonates today! Here's a few things I want y’all to know: 1. Its okay to be single. Historically speaking, a Queen without a King was more powerful. 2. Its okay to love your curves and your chub rolls. 3. Its okay to be skinny and love your athletic build. 4. Its okay to not be into makeup and to love sweat pants. 5. Its okay to love full out glam and live everyday extra AF. 6. There is no such thing a perfect body. 7. We all have rolls when we bend over. 8. It's okay if you want a 9-5 life 9. Its okay if you want to build a business 10. Its okay if you do not aspire to marriage 11. Its okay if you want to be married early, or late 12. Its okay if you dont want kids 13. its okay if you want a house full of kids! 14. It’s okay if something in your closet doesn’t fit or work for you. The most important thing to this life is living it FOR YOU! Ignore what society says is right, do what feels right to you! This life is far too short to spend it living to someone elses standards... live to yours.

While I normally do not come on the internet to talk about religious, political or spirituality, I found some profound posts, articles and material that I refused to let your ears pass by without hearing. All topics are coming with a TRIGGER WARNING and all sensitive. While some of my statements are thrown in, I deem the right to block and ban if you come for me with an opinion that is harmful to my well being. If you're adult enough to be on the internet and have a social media account, you're adult enough to have an actual discussion about various view and outlooks regarding the general rights, civility and healthcare currently in this country. Part 1: a snippet of the NPR article also heard on the podcast 'All Things Considering' https://www.npr.org/2022/06/24/1102305878/supreme-court-abortion-roe-v-wade-decision-overturn Part 2: Patients A-E, shared scenarios of various patients who did not make it due to various complications of prolonged need or right for assistance. the Instagram post is by @wokedoctors in where they discuss the scenarios written by @bmwellsxox, med student and future ob/gyn stating 'This is has a high chance a becoming a devastating norm in this country with how things stand today. We can't allow this to happen, Abortion is Healthcare.' Part 3: Shared snippet of a blog post by Gabrielle Blair of @designmom for the collective called @chamberofmothers about the male additional to the women and pregnancy equation. While some parts were shared on Chamber of Mothers, here is the full blog post: https://designmom.com/twitter-thread-abortion/ if you'd like to read more from her. Part 4: Resources from V by @underthedesknews, for resources needed this weekend if you're needing care in your state, to take a road trip or to receive additional care when/if needed. Be sure to follow her on all socials, she's amazing with news I never understand. Here is the video that I shared on this episode: https://www.tiktok.com/@underthedesknews/video/7114714504730119470?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7095482665928164910 for those of you who didn't read it the first time, here is a second While some of my statements are thrown in, I deem the right to block and ban if you come for me with an opinion that is harmful to my well being. If you're adult enough to be on the internet and have a social media account, you're adult enough to have an actual discussion about various view and outlooks regarding the general rights, civility and healthcare currently in this country.

A year ago, I asked some of my friends on social media, what they've done lately that they consider BRAVE, and the results were amazing! Shout out to my friends Rosalinda Marie, Yvonne Mercado, Aubry Feathers, Makendrie Crozier, Mallory Mercury, Kristin Savoy, Amber Spurlock, Alisha Randall, Shanda Harris, and Rolando for sharing with me, I hope that not only was a celebration for you but also inspiration to others! I can help and hope that the things I mentioned recently that I've been trying to be more BRAVE about have helped you in a way that pushes you safely into a space that allows you to do more active things that you consider challenging.  Before I go, you know I had to compile a list of tips to help you if you're on the bus struggling to reach new goals and put on that BRAVE cap babes:  Compliment a stranger- theres something so cool about giving verbal love to someone else. Discuss goals and dreams outloud with someone who you don't normally share with- it'll help manifest them in a new way Write down an unfulfilled goal/dream and put it on the fridge. the more you see it, the more it can become yours and attainable. Admit you can't do it all and let something go- just the freeing sense of control of that is not only a juxtaposition but allows more space for the great to pop in. Challenge yourself to do something by yourself, you know this is one of my fav activities and its not as scary as you'd think ;) I really thank you for tuning today! How'd you like the new exit segment? i thought it was fun to record so I hope you like that. #confetti corner: Merch is launching as soon as I like the way the website looks and keep an eye out for a Patreon too! Hooray!

I've had some crazy adventures in the last couple of weeks that have been realllllly giving my patience, sanity and normal life situations a run for their money. Luckily, I am learning to adapt to new challenges and busting through some personal obstacles that I know I am not alone in. I just never really imagined that they would arrive in my 40's. I have no idea what took it so long but coping mechanisms are happily here better late than never so hooray for that. Not only does it include a fun water main break in my front yard (all is fixed now thanks for whatever the heck 'blue glue' is called and skilled father-in-law. And an interesting interaction on Buckley and I's walk this afternoon, in the greatest protective way. But I digress, Lets get to the unexpected article I found today written by @MarianneStenger (Marianne Stenger is a London-based freelance writer and journalist with extensive experience covering all things learning and development. She’s particularly interested in the psychology of learning and how technology is changing the way we learn. Her articles have been featured by the likes of ABC Education, The Huffington Post, Lifehacker, and Psych Central. Follow her on Twitter @MarianneStenger.) (link: https://www.opencolleges.edu.au/informed/features/7-ways-develop-cognitive-flexibility/) Here's some great ways to train your brain to navigate through pivots and expand some cognitive flexibility: 1. Alter your everyday routine. 2. Seek out new experiences. 3. Practice thinking creatively. 4. Don’t always take the easy way. 5. Go out of your way to meet new people. 6. Transfer your learning. 7. Challenge your morals. I am so thankful that these '7 Ways to Develop Cognitive Flexibility' tips not only quickly helped me today but definitely can assist you in your time of need as well. Thank you Marianne! This week's #confetticorner from me this week is discussing a quick overview of my new work challenges and opportunities as well as the maunch lerch (aka MERCH LAUNCH) on 6/25 and why that date is so significant to me. I am so excited for you guys to see what is in store and Thank you for always showing up for me, I love you bunches.

A huge shout-out to Sahara Ali (you can find her on IG at @saharaleonoraali and Twitter at @askSahara) a Content and Social, Equality Marketing Specialist at @Salesforce for the amazing article (entitled '9 LGBTQ+ Women Who’ve Led the Way for the Next Generation') in 2021 to help highlight amazing women/people to watch as leaders in the LGBTQ+ community.  Here is the great lineup with many to follow I am sure of it: Marsha P. Johnson Sylvia Rivera Audre Lorde Megan Rapinoe Geena Rocero Edie Windsor Jazzie Collins Hinaleimoana Wong-Kalu Billie Jean King Thank you for not only Sahara but also these amazing individuals for showing us how it can be done when we set our mind to challenge change when its in the face of not only insecurity of others but also the way communities can and should be built- surround and filled with love.  Happy Pride Month babes! Tune in on Friday for an expected episode on How to Pivot like Ross Gellar. Thanks for hanging and if there are any other advocates this month that you'd like for me to highlight- feel free to email me at thebabeafpod@gmail.com. I love you bunches and I'll see ya next time, toodles.

Last weekend I took a little Trader Joe’s shopping trip into downtown Austin and little did I know that when I arrived, I would be flooded with the intense gratitude for who I am and where I am now in my life. There are not many things that I am suspect of but challenges and change are definitely duo that I welcome but I also need to walk about to consciously think of the exciting opportunities ahead... I find it very interesting that in times of reflective gratitude you don’t always understand how to push forward when shit gets difficult. What I am here to tell you today is that definitely taking a step back in order to remember those previous occupations and people in skills, the future is something and I am super excited about. And as normal, everything is always working out for you and please go boldly into the darkness and be the fucking light.

Conspiracy theorists are everywhere and unfortunately, just because you believe something can't happen before your talents may lack in a certain area that you do not believe it to do true- there in lines the unnecessary duo of Ableism & Insecurities. Last week's #womentowatch episode took a deeper dive into the remarkable woman that Helen Keller was- breaking down all your accomplishments, struggles and her achievements throughout her years as a deafblind individual. And interestingly enough, some people think she's fake, so I am here to help educate you along with my friends (and resources) below to debunk babes, let's go.

All opinions stated here are my own and I am so blessed to have a platform that supports that in addition but not limited too, don't forget that 'love is love' and if you're not down with that then this very well may not be the podcast, person or listening room for you. Carry on, but work on being better in your our right k, babe? Thank you to all the people who have fought to lessen those marginalized in different communities so that I can learn to be a better support and ally for those in need.  al*ly // verb /əˈlī/ 1. combine or unite a resource or commodity with (another) for mutual benefit. ' the guide to allyship' a short list: (found here: https://guidetoallyship.com/ Take on the struggle as your own. Transfer the benefits of your privilege to those who lack it. Amplify voices of the oppressed before your own. Acknowledge that even though you feel pain, the conversation is not about you. Stand up, even when you feel scared. Own your mistakes and de-center yourself. Understand that your education is up to you and no one else. Thank you to Jess Natale of @so.informed and Jamal Anthony Taylor of @lemmeeducateyou instagram posted listed there for the collab: https://tinyurl.com/solemmeig The Trevor Project, The Marsha P Johnson Institute, & the Trans Justice Funding Project are just a couple of the amazing resources they highlight throughout the post collaboration. Definitely listen in for more and write down all resources that you may be to be a better ally.  --- I believe that this episode is not just helping for gain more information but to also educate us about the ways in which other humans live their lives and the resources in which are constantly need to grow, shape and come together for each other in the future.  --- More avenues to learn listed here and spoken the podcast today: YWCA: 10 best ways to be an ally : https://tinyurl.com/ywcaally ALCU: How to Be a Better Ally 101: https://tinyurl.com/aclually101

Trigger warning: this episode touches on war, slavery, political views of others in a time from 1880-1970, please be advised.  Helen Adams Keller (June 27, 1880 – June 1, 1968) was an American author, disability rights advocate, political activist and lecturer. All the information talked in this episode are that of her Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helen_Keller, feel free to browse through all the honors, citations, and literature written by such a transformative women for person with disabilities and advocacy.  Stay tuned to part 2 to hear of the many conspiracies surrounding Helen and her works. 

Trigger Warning: this episode includes talks of unaliving/suicide, self harm, depression, loss, trauma, recovery, disorders, anxiety, mental health challenges With May being Mental Health Awareness Month, I wanted to take the time to share a group of articles that I saw in one of affinity groups of work. My fulltime job with Zillow and we have these amazing groups (for example, women empowerment, pride, women over 40, women in sales) groups where we have the opportunity to join, be included, and be an ally. So with that being said, a couple of tags and articles that were shared in a group this week are definitely some that I felt the need to share and give resources to those in need or to keep on hand to share with others as well.  I believe that mental health is dynamic in all our our stages of self care and how we navigate all things and ourselves in all situations.  Here are some things that Crisis Counselors and Therapists Want you to know: 1. You are not alone 2. Suicide Is Not the Solution… 3. …But You Don’t Need to Know the Solution Right Now 4. Your Feelings Will Pass 5. Your Counselor Is Not Frightened by Your Thoughts 6. Your Counselor Loves What They Do and Wants to Help 7. Your Vulnerability Is a Strength, Not a Weakness Thank you for tuning into this quick episode, I know that we could dive really deep into the depth of what this month means to us but I wanted to give a quick article that really spoke to me and would give the opportunity to reach ya'll in a time or need or have the resources to share to someone who may need it.

This week's #womentowatch, is Stacey Park Milbern all thanks to a #GoogleDoodle on 5/19/2022 honoring not only her legacy but what would have been her 35th birthday. Here is more on Stacey and some amazing information I learned about her: Stacey Park Milbern was a queer, Korean-American disability justice activist, who co-founded the disability justice movement and dedicated her life to advocating for marginalized communities. In honor of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, today’s Doodle—illustrated by San Francisco, CA-based guest artist, Art Twink—celebrates Stacey Park Milbern’s legacy on what would be her 35th birthday. Milbern was born in 1987 in Seoul, South Korea. She grew up in Fort Bragg, North Carolina and began her service as a leader for disability justice at the age of 16. After noticing a lack of advocacy for disabled LGBTQ+ and people of color, she teamed up with other activists in 2005 to coin disability justice—a framework dedicated to ensuring the perspectives of traditionally marginalized groups within the disabled community weren’t left out of the fight for disability rights. At the age of 24, Milbern moved to the Bay Area, California, where she worked tirelessly to organize, write, and speak for the movement, and became Director of Programs at the Center of Independent Living.  In 2014, Milbern was appointed to the President’s Committee for People with Intellectual Disabilities and served as an advisor to the national administration. “I want to leave a legacy of disabled people knowing we are powerful and beautiful because of who we are, not despite of it." - Stacey Park Milbern From advocating for national legislation to building community through the Disability Justice Culture Club—Stacey Milbern always dreamed big and lived up to her values. Happy 35th birthday, Stacey Park Milbern. Thank you all for the help in learning and helping to further advocate for communities like and for Stacey Park Milbern- here are all the found resources, please go take a read, a watch and a listen:  Google Doodle courtesy of Art Twink and more designs here: https://tinyurl.com/arttwinkig Google Doodle link for more: https://tinyurl.com/staceymilberngoogledoodle More on the article of 'In her own words: Remembering and Honoring Stacey Park Milbern' by American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD) : https://tinyurl.com/andcgooglestacey Youtube video behind the Google Doodle: https://tinyurl.com/staceyMgoogledoodle

I love it when a woman is coming into their own as a human and when they get all free-spirited and boss on it, really just had fuel to my #girlcrush fire. I have loved HD since 'younger' well that's because I am older than the Lizzie Maguire fandom BUT I can appreciate the adventures she's gone on throughout the years to be the woman that she is now! @womenshealthmag sat down with her (clothed for the interview) to chat and be the spokeswomen for their Body issue and they could not have picked a better candidate! I learned so much in such a short period of time and as an avid lover of HIMYM, I am excited that she's a main character in HIMYF (thats How I Met your Father, for those of you not in the know!  You'll hear a clip of the article for about 6 minutes and you're definitely gonna want to buckle up buttercup because she spills some of her best kept beauty and body secrets. I am not sure if the online version is the same as the print but I have the hardest time reading aloud today SO I wanted to give you the link to the article so you can read aloud for the class or to yourself- whatever sprinkles your cupcake.  Three cheers for Hilary and her continued badassery and while I didn't have an in person chat with her like Karen Varby did, I hope you guys enjoy and get some inspiratation from this multifaceted and beautiful babe. HUGE THANK YOU & Full article here: https://www.womenshealthmag.com/life/a39854111/hilary-duff-naked-cover-interview/  Be sure to like, share, comment, follow, subscribe, rate & review and if you need me - I'm at socials @thebabeafpod and you're also welcome to email me for collabs at thebabeafpod@gmail.com - Toodles and love you!

alright, I rarely get fired up by things on the internet because well, i like to be blissfully unable of the shit that doesn't serve me SO i really got thrown for a loop this week when I saw the admirable Jacqueline Doty (feminine energy dating coach, @claritybyjacqui, full video here: https://tinyurl.com/56fahx6r) discussing how 'men don't like loud women' in one of her tiktok videos.  And it really got me thinking... yep, using my brain here babes... WHY THE LABELS? Why the loud? calm? confidence? meek? understatement? stereotyped? sexualized?  WHY ANY OF THIS BULLSHIT THAT MAKES US FEEL LIKE CRAP ABOUT OURSELVES AND THEN PROJECT THAT TO SOMEONE ELSE? Y'all I could go on and on in the negative headspace that labels really fucking with me, but alas, there's always a lesson (or four actually) to learn, so buckle up, here we go. learn to let go of the judgement, check out Gabrielle Bernstein's judgment detox journal, if you have no idea where to start.   be more self aware: im labeling this one, the 'ope & pivot'.- don't let self doubt sally come back uninvited.   find true belief! is this actually something that i am using MY brain to conclude and think for MYself (unselfishly, lets hope) or is it the alternative?  be graceful and leave that mind open- its crucial for all types and forms of development. Honestly, I'm thankful for women like Jacqui because they challenge my way of thinking and understanding the reasons for other trains of thought and trust me, everything you hear from me is a opinion (unpopular or not) of myself. I adore the juxtaposition of the human race so before I go, have the conversations that make you uncomfortable and open up your ability to judge less and love more.  Sidenote: MERCH IS LAUNCHING 6/25/2022, more on that in a later episode, three cheers to this weeks #confetticorner, whats yours?

Steph and I welcome back one of our busiest month's personally to chat about a pop culture halt with a lot of the info that we've previously been discussing. I mean did anyone else feel like APRIL 2022 was a hot mess/ spicy disaster well on the express bus to the shitshow.  From new BABIES from the Pauls, the Criss's, those who were on The Ultimatum, Duggerville and the Kennedys of E!, cheers ya'll. Happy Happy Bday to some of our favorites: Leighton, Jack, Rudd, and a Hudson with more more to celebrate.  And our Favorite segment, shall be named as our BuckeUp Bachelor news, orignal right!? We talk about whats the come in Paradise, hooray for engagements and our top three from the franchise.  I definitely love a hot goss segment, and while this one is short and simple, its definitely full of our opinions, to share yours, please and thanks. 

With the unexpected and tragic passing of Naomi Judd this past weekend, I thought it only fitting to chat about the amazing woman that she was and all that she helped contribute to country music.  I loved learning about Naomi through all the information from her Wikipedia page encompassing all the amazing awards and accolades that she received throughout her magnificently talented 76 years. Not only a remarkable mother to Wynonna and Ashley, but she brought such a light to the advocacy of her Hepatitis C diagnosis and gave to herself to many organizations like the American Liver Foundation as a spokeswoman. As of May1, 2022, The Judds were inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, what a dynamic tribute.  Naomi & Wynonna Judd's 10 Essential Songs (in no particular order):  "Have Mercy" (1985) "Mama He's Crazy" (1984) "Maybe Your Baby's Got the Blues" (1987) "Why Not Me" (1984) "Girls Night Out" (1984) "Grandpa (Tell Me 'Bout the Good Old Days)" (1986) "Love Can Build a Bridge" (1990) "Cry Myself to Sleep" (1985) "Rockin' With the Rhythm of the Rain" (1985) "Young Love (Strong Love)" (1989) Huge thanks to Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naomi_Judd and Rolling Stone for this amazing article written by JONATHAN BERNSTEIN, STEPHEN L. BETTS, JON FREEMAN & JOSEPH HUDAK on https://tinyurl.com/RollingStoneNaomiJudd.  Please find remarkable resources for your mental state in any / all ways that you can. Better Help (not sponsored) is a great resource for all kinds of ways to speak to amazing therapists through text, video or phone chats and they are frequently available. As May is Mental Health Awareness Month, I would like to highlight some great resources as well; National Suicide Prevention Lifeline available 24 hours in English and Spanish and you're welcome to call or chat; 800-273-8255 with the full website here: https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=onebox Thank you for listening to this weeks women to watch Wednesday, I feel like there are a ton of ways that we are able to support each other by highlighting not only amazing badass women in our local communities but learning from those who are blazing their own trails throughout their industries just as Naomi did. I really appreciate you taking the time to listen to be chat this week and highlighting such a legend.  Some amazing Spotify https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1DZ06evO4C55rG?si=8e218b10c5b040e2 that I love including the Judd's! In other housekeeping news: Things I like that you should fucking buy this week is my stellar handpainted hat by @pipperberlinhatco, my girl Christina Hinnant is so damn talented and you should check her out.
