Hey babes!

In this episode of Baseball for Girls, I’m talking about one of my favorite things about baseball: how slow it is.

From Baseball Zen and broadcaster storytelling to 162-game seasons and learning how to fail publicly without losing your sense of self, baseball has become one of the biggest nervous system regulators in my life.

This episode is less about stats and more about the emotional side of the game:

  • delayed gratification
  • patience
  • resilience
  • belonging
  • learning to try again after a bad game, bad week, or bad season


Whether you’re already a baseball fan or have never watched a game in your life, I hope this episode helps you see why baseball feels so comforting, human, and beautiful to so many people.
