so much shame and guilt we carry while we navigate life being human. it's time to pick up some of your own baggage and really decide if it's serving you well ::: my guess is "nah boo". so let's start taking those dark times and giving them a brick shape. start paving your way with those bricks, those times that brought you to who you are today. that walk is about ownership + forgiveness. for no on...

Volume doesn't mean truth. Opinions are the new virus ••• the noise is at all time high and popular people suddenly got magical expert powers—plus you've got discerning to do over your family, workload, health. Lord hear our prayers. Let's turn down alllllll the volume, and let's talk real about the house party noise level that is 2020.  We've got more choices and more freedoms than we know. And i...

Hands in on three y'all! We are going to make it. No for real. I promise. I'm taking a minute to talk the real about darkness of depression, that sneaky little sucker, and how to take back the hope with superhero strength. It can be done because we are not finished here friends. Only getting started. Stay strong. Stay real. Stay real strong. ilysm. xoxo kb     

A heart to heart with one of my very best friends. Two of the OG wheat field dancers ((story in episode)) talk joy, harvest, and life abundant. We share the frustration of failed harvest and the secret gifts of bum crops. We also share stories from the baby delivery room and clogging. If you ever what sums up our friendship::: it's that. delivery rooms and clogging. Laney is a mama, a wife, and a...

Pattern lovers anonymous captain here! A PSA for the people :::  patterns belong on wardrobe and not on your relationships. It's the time to surf your inner workings to identify what no longer serves you. So while patterns are totally acceptable on your throw pillows, trenches, and scarves, they are not welcome in your spiral moments of self doubt. Your old pattens are so last season. Hop in. Dig...

Y'all know it's real real when there are tears and Akon in one episode ••• It's an hour of three friends in open chick chat. A deep dive into a safe space where we talk intentional next steps, filing a missing person report for the old us, and why the new version is enlightened and able. The world is reinventing itself. You can too. Also, smack that. xoxo. 

Checking facts and saving brands. Your brand, their brand, the world brand. Changing the world and gut checking. It's a safe place here, but it's a big space on purpose. We've got to work inside of it. A space where we look in before we act out. Be the change, make the change. Get in here. But don't forget your sugar, sugar! 

"Black Lives Matter." And other complete sentences like "I love you."   

It's our kick start to alignment starting with a deep dive into your vision. A dream seed planted you are dying to water, digging up and replanting hope, and learning your reinvention starts today. It may sound like a cheesy self help rally in a hotel ballroom, but I assure you it's a safe spot, and, well, cry with me please so I'm less alone. Ok? Ok. Let's live limitless and without expiration. I...

Are you ready or not?  Your right to stay closed is always your right. Your right to "not". Your right to be ready. We talk about how grounded we've become in our being "socially grounded".  As always, I encourage you to follow your gut. You know when and how and if and yes and no thank you. Trust that you've fed that with times of still and laser focus. Times to dwell in your gut feelings ((or Go...

This little wonder was my very favorite co-host ever.  She also spilled the beans on all my non-highlight mamahood fails ::: awesome. She included a tale of "salt legend ate from under the sink" ((also known as a cascade pod)). True failure and raw real words straight from the 32 pounder herself.   For four years I've said I want to be Love when I grow up. In this episode I'm reminded of exactly w...

Guess who's back. Back again. KB is back. Tell yo friends. This week has tricks & treats for putting on your rally caps on. IJN3 + living life in less extremes while navigating, well ... extremes. Thanks for pulling me out of the valley. You are special. Time to rally. xoxo KB. 

This week pinpointing the emotion is a lot like pinpointing the craving ::: can't be done so just eat it all? Kidding kind of. The feelings are hard to lock down. So I'm feeling ((and eating)) it all. I basically told my son he'd have his day in court. Not proud. Just real. And I answered a few of your questions which was way fun. So grab your styrofoam cups and your best cardigan. Get in here you...

Greetings from the leader of the alabaster Kardashian cartel. I'm exhausted. Maybe too tired to be scared is a good thing. Maybe a Holy Week is the perfect time to remember why it's good to rest and resurrect. Get in here. Learn the sixth love language. Let's cuddle up and be honest. 

As social distancing moves to sheltering in place and the "task" turns into the new normal. The thin patience and the anxiety of navigating newness in our own humanness.    We are talking the infectious anxiety of the infection. We are talking carving out something sacred in something scary. And we are talking help. I know I'm allergic to it too. Oh, by "we" I mean "I" bc I'm hunkered. Come on in...

In this episode we talk about contagious hope. About the uncertainty and the living in the middle. These are crazy times to navigate on so many levels. Let's curl up and get through this together. The solidarity in the pandemic is beautiful if we allow the space for it. Also i suck at accents. So love me through this one please. Ok? Ok. 

Social distancing. The one thing I'm actually an expert in. #thatSAHMlife y'all.  And bc of my recovering OCD, I'm also passionate about hand washing. So here we are. Some changes yes, like my husband being home. Suddenly everyone is a stay at home mom. Including husbands and well, everyone. It's an adjustment.  As with anything toxic in our lives, time & space is needed. And if we are being hones...
