  • We’re getting honest about our body image struggles: from calorie counting and comparison to pregnancy, postpartum, and learning to get strong for the right reasons. We share the unhealthy habits we normalized, the comments that stuck with us, and how we’re hoping to raise kids with a healthier relationship with food and their bodies. We hope this conversation reminds you you’re not alone. 💛Flamingo: Get the Flamingo Starter Set for just $7 at www.shopflamingo.com/ABBY; includes the Original Razor, 5-blade cartridge, Foaming Shave Gel, and shower holder—limited time offer.Osea: Get 10% off your first order sitewide at oseamalibu.com with code ABBY.Honeylove: Save 20% off Honeylove by going to honeylove.com/ABBY! #honeylovepod #adAlways Hungry:Abby: Creamy Pesto Saladjuliasalbum.com/corn-pasta-salad-baconAbigail: Corn Saladthecozycook.com/corn-saladFollow Always Here:https://www.youtube.com/@alwaysherepodcasthttps://www.instagram.com/alwaysherepodcast/https://www.tiktok.com/@alwaysherepodcasthttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61583535220280Listen to the pod on Spotify/Apple Podcasts:https://open.spotify.com/show/38IRpe6gV1WnqIFNZ6CHF5https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/always-here/id1862654475Chapters:01:08 - The Hope & the Hard 12:14 - All American Val Birthday Party 15:00 - Trampoline park19:18 - Blake's Always Thinkin' 22:32 - Wow, That's Crazy 30:05 - Body Image 37:03 - Filters 40:08 - Comparison 41:46 - My first struggles with body image01:00:50 - Pregnancy and Postpartum01:15:02 - Movement and mental health 01:21:00 - Ask Abbys01:53:41 - Always HungryLearn more about your ad choices.

  • This week on Always Here, we’re getting honest about postpartum. We talk about the emotional highs and lows after birth, recovering physically and mentally, the unexpected hormone crash after weaning, birth stories, and the small wins that remind you you’re finally starting to feel like yourself again. Whether you’re in the thick of postpartum or supporting someone who is, we hope this conversation helps you feel a little less alone.

  • Today on Always Here, we’re talking all things birth control, hormones, periods, and the women’s health conversations we wish we’d had sooner. We share our experiences coming off birth control, navigating family planning, what we were taught growing up (and what we definitely weren’t), and some surprising things we’ve learned about our bodies along the way.

    We also chat about cycle tracking, “pull and pray,” period misconceptions, hormone health, and why we’re rethinking the way we want to talk to our daughters about their periods.

  • Mom guilt comes in all forms — from being a working mom, to the transition from one kid to two, to worrying your kids aren’t eating enough vegetables. In this episode of Always Here, the girls talk about the pressure moms put on themselves, the emotional “firstborn shift,” and why the guilt can feel endless no matter what stage of motherhood you’re in. They also get into awkward conversations about the s*x talk and poll the audience for the wildest, most irrational places mom guilt has taken their minds.

  • In this episode, the girls open up about the complicated emotions that can come with birth and pregnancy. They talk honestly about C-section guilt and the pressure many moms feel to have a “natural” delivery — and what it’s like to process feelings of disappointment, anger, and healing afterward.



    They also share the reality of tough morning sickness, the trial-and-error search for relief, and how pregnancy can look and feel completely different each time. Plus, Abby shares a meaningful update about her rainbow baby and the mix of hope, gratitude, and vulnerability that comes with this season.

  • This week on Always Here we're getting honest about Botox and filler — the decision, the guilt, and the beauty standards we're all quietly navigating as mothers. We also get into hypocrisy (the fun kind) and all the things we swore we'd never do before we had kids... and then absolutely did. Plus, you sent us your best mom-hypocrisy confessions and they did not disappoint.
