    Loving to Loath: Dissecting the Disapproval of Female-Centric Fandoms

    Why do people like to hate things that others enjoy? Why are the interests of women and girls made into jokes? Why are we made out to be "basic" for loving things? This is my Roman Empire. Buckle in.

    Spilling My GUTS

    Spilling My GUTS

    Hello my friends! I'm back and I'm spilling my GUTS about why I ghosted the podcast & social media, and I'm digging into the new Olivia Rodrigo album - because I have so many thoughts. This album took the things that swim around in my head and put them into the most relatable lyrics. I love being a 26 year-old teenager....

    Advice Sesh: Situationships, Bad Co-Workers, & Uncomfy Communication w/ Gia Fracalossi

    Advice Sesh: Situationships, Bad Co-Workers, & Uncomfy Communication w/ Gia Fracalossi

    Hello my friends! Today I'm joined by my internet bestie and the host of Ambivalent Bitches, Gia, to read your advice submissions and take our best stab at providing some third-party advice - and I think we kind of killed it. We get into topics like unsupportive friendships, negative co-workers, sticky situationships, moving in with a partner, and more! I knew this would be the perfect episode to have Gia on for because, as you'll hear right away, Gia is compassionate, insightful, and so down-to-earth. This episode feels like you're having lunch with your girls or chatting on the phone with friends. We weren't able to get through all of the submissions, so stay tuned for a part 2 coming soon. Thanks to all who submitted and thanks for tuning in! Enjoy. :)

    All Things Entrepreneurship w/ Sharon Brand: Pursuing Passions, Overcoming Imposter Syndrome, & Achieving Work-Life Balance

    Hello my friends! In this week's episode I sat down with Founder & CEO of Brand's Media Group, Sharon Brand. (And yes, that really is her last name. So iconic right?) Sharon has such a calm, grounding energy about her while simultaneously going after all her ambitions in life. She provided some really inspiring insights on being a young, female entrepreneur, including topics like imposter syndrome, changing your direction in life, having work-life balance, managing a team, and so much more! This episode truly got me all fired up and left me feeling so motivated to put some of my dreams & plans into action, so I hope it does the same for you. Thanks for tuning in & enjoy. :)

    Stop Asking People When They're Getting Married

    Stop Asking People When They're Getting Married

    If you've ever felt personally victimized by someone hitting you with the "are you seeing anyone?" or "when are you getting engaged?" or "you're still not married?" - this one is for you. In today's chatty episode, I talk all about my views on marriage, as an unwed woman in a 6 year relationship. *gasps in horror!* I'm so not on board with feeling like we need to achieve everything in our 20s. Ditch the rules and make your own. Oh and we also have a silly little giggle about the trends that I tried starting in middle school... thanks for tuning in and enjoy! :)

The Goodest Human! 🥹

The soul connection that I have with Abby is actually unreal! In every episode, I feel like she is speaking directly at me in a way that makes me feel so seen, validated, and understood. If you’re struggling on your journey through young adulthood, turn on an episode of Good Human and you will instantly find a friend in Abby.

Love this Show

I’ve followed Abby on Instagram for a few years, and i was excited when she create a podcast. Now, Good Human is not of my favorite shows. This podcast covers some super relatable content and I feel like I’m having a conversation a friend!
