A little of this, a little of that. (Maybe even a skincare routine.)
For someone who is most definitely not an "influencer," Dakota Duffy shares a potpourri of anecdotes, advice, research, and everything in between. After wearing many hats over the years (and working way too much), ALOPHBA covers many of the questions Dakota has been asked along the way, in addition to ones her guests have been asked too!
How Do You Balance Being a Mom, an Athlete, a Professional, AND a Small Business Owner?
ALOPHBA welcomes Tamara (Dove) Walcott (IG: @plussize_fitqueen4.0) to talk about life, lifting, motherhood, and the balancing act that is having so many roles and goals in life! Tamara is currently prepping for her next meet in April and is doing a GoFundMe ( gofund.me/3394a80d ) to raise money for the trip, as well as to give back to the powerlifting community. We also chat about her business, Plus Size Fitness Queen/King apparel, and the compression leggings that will make ya man look so good you want to eat him.

ALOPHBA tries three Oreo flavors with Austin Zechman (IG: @the_zechman) and Abiy Ababu (IG: @abiyababu), as they discuss the perks of bargain hunting, nutrition, relationships, LinkedIn as a way to stalk your exes, and what happened on Huntington Beach...
