Hi loves!

Welcome in to another episode! We are behing this month due to some Family weddings and unexpected passing away of loved ones.

Today we bring you a Trafficking Today: What Women Need to Know to Stay Safe

Before we begin today's episode, we want to share a brief content note.
This episode includes discussion of sex trafficking, kidnapping, and threats to women's safety. While we do not go into graphic detail, these topics may be activating or emotionally heavy for some listeners.

We encourage you to listen in a way that feels safe for you. That may mean taking breaks, listening with someone you trust, or choosing to skip this episode entirely.

Your well-being comes first. If at any point you feel overwhelmed, it's okay to pause or step away.

This conversation is intended to inform, empower, and protect—not to create fear.

Such a hard conversation that is all around the world today. We discuss what this looks like, why strangers are a real risk and how they approach and high risk locations

Be aware of your surroundings, if your gut is screaming it isnt right...it isnt right. Speak loudly and protect yourself. We are taught, as women, to stay small, to smile and be "sweet" as Abbie says many times. This is not the time to be sweet, get away, listen to your gut and yell, scream and you do not owe anyone any explanation

High-risk locations include:

• Parking garages and parking lots
• Gas stations
• Airports and transit hubs
• Hotels and motels
• Public bathrooms
• Elevators and stairwells
• Crowded events
• Rideshare pickup areas

  Risk increases when:

  • It's dark or early morning
  • You're alone
  • You're distracted by your phone
  • You're wearing headphones
  • You're traveling
  • You're visibly stressed or emotional or you have been drinking.

Traffickers use date rape drugs that are odorless, colorless and tasteless. These cause memory loss, confusion and inabilityy to fight back, making it very easy for them to abduct you.

We go further and talk about common red flags, tactics and so much more. Please listen in if you can and share it, talk about it, discuss it. We love you, please be safe!

XOXOXOXO

Welcome in loves.

Today's episode is about reclaiming your power. Today, we're looking at the words we use when our space, our truth, and our safety are being challenged.

We are role playing some scenerios where you can hear some of the boundary phrases we could use to de-escalate a situation. It doesnt have to be in a DV conflict, these also work outside the home with strangers, family, etc.

The goal of someone that is interrogating you is to make you feel like you're on trial. If you start explaining or justifying yourself—you've already lost the boundary because you've accepted that they have the right to cross-examine you. A boundary is not a request for them to change; it's a notification of what you are doing.

Of course, this may not work for you. Only you know what your situation looks like and if these will work. Be safe and do what is right for you, but you are allowed to set boundaries in any relationship or with a stranger. It can be frustrating for the other person because they want that fight. They want you to defend yourself so they can keep twisting your words.

If you need support, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 800-799-7233.

You are not alone. You are Invincible

Happy New Year loves!

Today, Abbie and I talk about how we (you) dont have to be okay here, at this time, in this moment, in this new year. We also discuss reflection and grief for the woman you used to be

There's a grief no one talks about—the grief of becoming someone new.

Grieving the woman who kept everyone else afloat. The woman who stayed quiet. The woman who believed if she just tried harder, things would work out.

Our lives are hectic enough, day to day, don't put so much pressure on yourself to be perfect or to finish those "resolutions". You are ok and sometimes we grow and outgrow some of those promises we make to ourselves at the beginning of the year. The goal is admirable and if you are able to achieve it, thats fantastic, but if you can't or dont thats ok too!

Traditional New Year's goals can feel cruel when you're rebuilding because they assume you're starting from a place of abundance. But some of us are starting from empty.

If your only intention this year is to survive more gently—that counts. You don't have to become more productive to be worthy. Letting go isn't weakness. It's discernment. If you're mourning what you had to release—people, dreams, timelines—your grief is valid.

You didn't fail. You listened.

Listen in as we take you through whispers of hope and love for the women who are listening.

We love you, welcome in to 2026 with us.
