In this inspiring Episode 40 of Y’all Listen Here, Barbie Bassett, Traci Lee, and Therese Apel dive into a simple idea that can change everything in the year ahead. Every new year brings fresh pages. Not a resolution, not a checklist, but one word to anchor your focus, guide your decisions, and shape how you move through 2026.

The ladies share their personal words for the year, what those words mean, and how choosing one intentional theme can help you walk with purpose through work, family, faith, and life.

If you are tired of resolutions that fade by February or goals that feel overwhelming, this episode offers a refreshing way to begin again.

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.
