A Mommy And A Mic
Barbie Famiglietti
I want to encourage others to be healthier, eat better, and feel great! Every episode I will share with you one aspect of my life. A concept, a tool, or shortcut that makes my life run a little smoother.  Elevate your culinary style but in a faster, easier way. Get tips on doing chores more efficiently, without chemicals. How about a nugget of knowledge to help you feel good on the inside, calmer and more peaceful? Could we all benefit from more good stuff on our insides instead of the yucky goo we sometimes feel? All of this so you can get back to what is most important: spending more time with your family and feeling good about yourself and your life!
Amazing Women Series: Megan Bartholomew
AI is here, y'all! And what are we going to do about it? I will be the first to admit, my mind flashes to the "Terminator" and "I-Robot" since I grew up on those movies. And yes, I was born before the internet. So, some of this stuff seems so futuristic! How are we actually here in 2025?

How This Boy Mom Is Handling The Assassination of Charlie Kirk
Charlie Kirk: I did not know him personally. I knew of him and his work. I thought he was doing a lot of good with his courage to speak. He had confidence in what he was saying.

Anyone can listen. I am offering a different perspective of what is going on in the world today. Let us stop and ...
