    This week, we step into the heart and soul of America’s pastime. In this nostalgic episode, Mike sits down with Jonna Perlinger, the driving force behind Babe’s Babes Media, to explore how baseball isn’t only a sport — it’s a legacy, a love language, and a way to keep the memories of those we cherish alive. From childhood living rooms turned into stadiums and sacred Yankees memorabilia that defined family bonds, to the modern-day mission of creating space for women’s voices in a traditionally male-dominated field — this conversation hits every note: nostalgia, inspiration, and pure passion for the game. Whether you grew up watching games on the couch with your dad, collecting cards with your brother, or cheering from the stands with your daughter — this episode is a home run. It’s about more than baseball. It’s about belonging. It’s about legacy. And it’s about rewriting the future of the game, one voice at a time. IN THIS EPISODE: ➡️Breaking Down Baseball as Legacy ➡️The Rise of Babe’s Babes Media ➡️Breaking Barriers in a Male-Dominated Field ➡️The Power of Storytelling in Sports   📘 BONUS TAKEAWAY: This episode reminds us that your voice matters — even in spaces that weren’t initially built for you. Jonna’s journey proves that passion and authenticity can break barriers, build communities, and even reshape traditions. Whether it’s baseball, business, or any dream you’re chasing, there’s room for you — and the story only gets richer when you step up to tell it.   🚀 PERFECT FOR: Die-hard baseball fans who see the game as more than a sport, women looking to carve out their space in male-dominated industries, and anyone who believes in the power of legacy, storytelling, and passion.

Today, Jay sits down with Madonna for a rare and intimate conversation that goes beyond her iconic career into the spiritual foundation that has carried her through life’s greatest challenges. For nearly 30 years, Madonna has walked a spiritual path that has shaped her resilience, fueled her creativity, and defined her sense of purpose. Madonna opens up about what first drew her to seek deeper meaning, the practices that became her lifeline, and why she believes spirituality has been the true key to her strength, longevity, and fulfillment.

In the second half of the conversation, Jay and Madonna are joined by her longtime Kabbalah teacher, Eitan, for a powerful exploration of spiritual wisdom in action. They discuss why our struggles and inner battles are essential for growth, and how to reframe challenges as opportunities to reveal greater light.
