    Episode #42: You’re Not Behind, You’re Becoming, Trusting God in Every Season.

    Ever feel like everyone else is ahead of you?   Like you missed your moment, took a wrong turn, or somehow ended up in the “waiting room” of life while everyone else is moving forward?   In this episode of Y’all… Listen Here, Barbie Bassett, Therese Apel, and Traci Lee have an honest, heart level conversation about the truth we often forget, every phase of life carries an assignment.   The mountaintops.   The messy middle.   The quiet seasons that feel unseen.   All of it matters.   Together, they unpack what it means to trust God when you feel behind, overlooked, or forgotten, and wrestle with the question so many of us ask but rarely say out loud, does God’s faithfulness depend on the season we’re in?   You’ll hear stories, laughter, perspective shifts, and the gentle reminder that maybe you’re not behind at all. Maybe God is doing deeper work than you can see.   If you’re in a season of waiting, rebuilding, starting over, or simply wondering what’s next, this conversation will feel like three friends sitting across the table saying, “Y’all… you’re going to be okay.”   Because God hasn’t forgotten you. Not for a second.    #YallListenHere #FaithPodcast #TrustGod #SeasonsOfLife #ChristianWomen #Encouragement #FaithJourney #NotBehind #GodsTiming #HopeAndHealing #RealTalkFaith #MississippiVoices #PodcastLife   This episode is produced by Daniel Anderson at Audio Alchemy Productions.

    Episode #41 - When Friendships Change: Letting Go, Letting God, and Moving Forward with Grace

    Friendships shape our lives in powerful ways. They’re the people we pray with, laugh with, and build dreams beside. But what happens when those relationships change or quietly fade away? Today on Y’all… Listen Here, Barbie Bassett, Therese Apel, and Traci Lee have an honest and heartfelt conversation about the ache of shifting friendships. How do we handle the disappointment without becoming bitter? How do we grieve what was while still trusting that God is sovereign, intentional, and kind? And how do we move forward with grace when someone we love is no longer walking the same path? This episode is raw, encouraging, and deeply relatable for anyone who has ever had to let go while still holding on to faith.

    Episode #38 - Into the Ice, Into the Fire: Barbie Bassett and Squirrel Face the Elements at Center Space

    In this episode, Barbie Bassett from the Y’all… Listen Here podcast and Squirrel from Squirrel World TV step far outside the comfort zone and into a powerful contrast therapy session at Center Space in Jackson, Mississippi. Guided by Zed Thompson, the owner of Center Space at 1525 Lelia Dr, they move through cold plunge and sauna cycles that test the mind, body, and spirit.   This is not just about the physical shock of icy water or the intensity of dry heat. Both Barbie and Squirrel talk about the emotional and psychological walls that come up when the body is screaming to quit. They share what it felt like to push through shaking, burning lungs, and the instinct to run, and how breathing, trust, and presence carried them through the discomfort into something deeper.   Zed does more than guide the process. He creates a space where people feel supported in the hardest moments, where the struggle turns into clarity and the discomfort turns into release. Barbie and Squirrel discuss how this session opened up conversations on stress, grief, identity, and the strength we do not know we have until we meet it.   If you want to experience this for yourself, Center Space hosts a free cold plunge and sauna community session every Sunday at 3 pm. You do not need experience, just a willingness to show up and breathe.   Center Space 1525 Lelia Dr Jackson, MS 39216   This episode was filmed by James Wells with Midtown Media along with Daniel Anderson of Audio Alchemy Productions. The edit was completed by Ari Atarji with Audio Alchemy Productions.
