Just A Phase Podcast

Today we're talking about MONEY, specifically the things we spend money on that are worth every freaking penny. We've all bought things that did NOT deserve our money. But then there are the purchases, services and subscriptions that make life better. Some buy back our time, some make motherhood easier, and some help us take better care of ourselves. And our lists are ALL over the place.

As you listen, think about yours: what will you happily spend money on every. single. time? Come tell us on Instagram!

What the FAHK is a spirit baby?! 😂👶🏼✨ The idea of a “spirit baby” comes from the spiritual belief that the soul of a future child may connect with you before conception — through dreams, a felt presence, synchronicities, repeated numbers, names, animals, songs or signs that feel WAY too specific to ignore.

And whether you fully believe in spirit babies, are spiritually curious, or are currently thinking, “Okay sisters, you’ve officially lost me…” 😂 this episode is a FUN one. Because all three of us have stories!!!!!

A little sisterly disclaimer: Spirit babies are a spiritual belief, not something that has been scientifically proven. We’re sharing our personal experiences and what they’ve meant to us, not claiming that a dream, number, animal or synchronicity is objective proof that a future child is communicating with you. Take what resonates, leave what doesn’t, and enjoy getting a little woo-woo with us. ✨

Now it’s time for the fun part: stocking stuffers. You know, the tiny gifts that somehow end up being everyone’s favorite. In this episode, we’re chatting through the things we’re actually buying (and gifting!) this year — from cozy home finds and kitchen upgrades to clean beauty faves, quirky gadgets, and the nostalgic holiday vibes we’re all craving. We also get into gratitude, giving back, and why being intentional with gifting matters way more than overbuying. It’s part holiday cheer, part chaos (because the babies are literally napping as we record), and 100% the cozy catch-up you need this week.

TOPICS WE COVER:

➡ Nostalgic Christmas décor: colorful lights, handmade ornaments, and reusing old favorites

➡ Giving back during the holidays — gratitude, kindness, and donating over selling

➡ Intentional gifting vs. filler gifts (and why less really is more)

➡ Stocking stuffers under $50 we’re obsessed with

*New upload! Apologies for the technical difficulties! If you’ve ever wondered why you’re “doing everything right” on your fertility journey — tracking cycles, eating clean, taking supplements — and still not getting answers, this episode is for you.

We sat down in person with our longtime teacher and healer⁠, Dr. Laura Graye⁠, to explore the energetics and spirituality of fertility and infertility.

This conversation goes deep — into consciousness, self-manifested reality, spirit babies, and the true meaning of creation.

We talk about how trauma, stress, and belief systems affect the body, what it means to co-create with consciousness, and why creativity and truth-telling can unblock energy in ways nothing else can.

If you’re navigating infertility, trying to conceive, or simply curious about how energy and spirit shape your health, this is a conversation that will expand your mind, soothe your soul, and probably give you chills (in the best way).

✨ Whether you’re in the middle of infertility, trying to conceive, or simply exploring your own spiritual awakening, this episode is a reminder: you are source.
