Cafe Grit

Beth Anne Campbell

Café Grit is where you come when you’ve got the hankering for purpose, a taste for fulfillment, and you’re tired of living the rat race.Maybe it's your corporate job and a dick of a boss. Maybe you're in your glory years and are looking to ignite that fire in your belly (and I don't mean a hot flash!). Maybe you've lost your mojo and want desperately to find it.Maybe you're living your best life and want to pay it forward because you’ve already dealt with the madness.Maybe you're just ready for some GRIT and some CHANGE.My name is Beth Anne Campbell and I am the host of the Café Grit podcast. I am a consultant project manager with over 20 years of experience in corporate life. I am also the author of "Where The Hell Is My Bacon?"I opened this group so women like myself can talk openly, authentically, honestly about finding fulfillment when it feels like there is none.As I start this effort, I have one foot in the corporate realm and one foot in my dream career. I'm entering my "glory years" and wondering what the f*ck is going on with my body and my brain. I long more and more each day to find purpose in life. I’m figuring it out right along with you. There will be swearing. There will be passion (and occasionally, anger). Maybe baby goats, bacon books, hoodies, and hats. I hope there is a lot of laughter.But don’t let all of that fool you. I am dead serious about finding what makes my heart sing. And I hope you are too.So...are you a badass even though sometimes you don't feel like one? Then come on into Café Grit...where the moxie is fresh, the passion cold-brewed, and everything is served with a heaping side of mojo.

Cafe Grit - Café Grit 041 Hoo-Hah Ultrasound
play

02/26/23 • 16 min

In Episode 041 of the Cafe Grit podcast, I talk about the time I scheduled a consult with an OB/GYN (to get information on managing menopause symptoms) and unexpectedly found myself in the Silver Stirrups with my naughty bits hanging out getting a precautionary ultrasound on my c00ch.

Boy, did I have to channel my grit to get this procedure done! I mean, I didn't even wear my good panties.
I also talk a bit about the fear of doctors and what some of us experience when we step into the exam room.

And women, if you are overdue for your hoo-hah exam (especially if you have risks or a family history like I do), please find the courage and time to get yourself to your doctor!

Cafe Grit - S2E09 EARLY GRIT
play

06/24/21 • 8 min

In this short episode I reminisce to some early days of GRIT when I came in dead last at a couple events at my school's Field Day. Grit isn't always about being in-your-face tenacious. Sometimes it's about being patient and just practicing.
