Ever feel like the only thing standing between you and your goals… is you?

In this episode of BABs Only Table Talk, we get real about how easy it is to become our own worst enemy when chasing our goals. From procrastination to self-doubt, sometimes the biggest thing holding us back is ourselves.

We talk about how to recognize when you’re getting in your own way, how to hold yourself accountable, and what it really takes to show up for the life you say you want.

Because being a BAB isn’t just about confidence — it’s about discipline, growth, and pushing yourself even when it’s uncomfortable.

A bird literally pooped on me… and instead of being mad, I claimed it as good luck. 😂✨

But here’s the twist — luck means nothing without action.

In this episode, my mom made me sit down and set 3 real goals — no fluff, no “I’ll start Monday.” We break down the three work goals she set for herself (and actually achieved 👏), and we challenge YOU to do the same.

This is your sign, BAB.

Set the goals. Say them out loud. Hold yourself accountable.

We wrap up with our BAB of the Week and celebrate someone walking in discipline and boss energy.

If you’ve been waiting on luck… this episode is your push to become it. 💅✨

New city. New routine. Same overthinking?

This episode dives into the real side of major life changes — moving states, adjusting to new environments, and trying to stay positive when everything feels unfamiliar. Because starting over isn’t always the glow-up people make it seem.

We bring in a special guest to share her unfiltered experience navigating a huge move, the emotional challenges she faced, and the habits that helped her stay mentally strong.

From journaling and sports to creative outlets that actually help, consider this your go-to guide for handling change without losing yourself.

When is sex TOO soon? 👀

Do men catch feelings… or decide instantly if you’re just a hook up? We brought in a male guest to say what guys actually think and whew 😳

Stay till the end to watch me and my mom spiral into pure chaos 💀😂

In this episode of BABS ONLY Table Talk, our mother/daughter duo gets real about the holidays. The joy, the pressure, and everything in between. We open up about how this season can bring connection and celebration, but also trigger seasonal depression, loneliness, and emotional burnout.

We share personal stories from both perspectives, how the holidays have looked for us at different stages of life, and the ways we cope when the season doesn’t feel so merry. From setting boundaries and managing expectations to finding small moments of peace and gratitude, nothing is off limits at the table.

Whether you love the holidays, struggle through them, or feel a mix of both, this conversation is for you. Real talk, shared experiences, and honest reflections, served just the way the BABS do it.

In our very first episode of BABS ONLY Table Talk, mother–daughter duo BAB LAV (Valerie Kandare) and OG BAB (Laurine Payne) pull up a chair and introduce themselves. We’re talking about where we’re from, our individual journeys, and the meaning and mission behind BABS ONLY Table Talk.

We reflect on our year of 2025, the lessons we’re carrying forward, and share some of our goals and intentions for 2026. Real conversations, honest reflections, and the foundation of what this podcast is all about — because real talk hits harder when it’s served across the table.
