Be Fabbo Podcast - Clarity • Self-Trust • Aligned Action to Build What Matters Most Business and Life
Welcome to the Be Fabbo Podcast with Bobbi Brinkman.
If you're building a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply trying to create a life that feels more aligned with who you are, you're in the right place.
Each week, we have honest conversations about what it really takes to build what matters most—in business, leadership, and life. Not through hustle, perfection, or chasing someone else's definition of success, but through clarity, self-trust, and aligned action.
Hosted by speaker, mentor, emcee, and founder of the Motivated To Be FABBO™ Framework, Bobbi combines four decades of entrepreneurial experience with the lessons she's still learning today to help you build a business and life that reflects who you are, not just what you do.
Grounded in the FABBO Pillars—Focused, Authentic, Brave, Bold, and Open—these conversations combine honest perspective, encouraging stories, and practical guidance to help you find clarity, strengthen self-trust, and take aligned action as you build what matters most.
Whether you're an entrepreneur, creative, leader, or someone rebuilding after life has taken an unexpected turn, these conversations are here to meet you in whatever chapter you're building through.
They're not about becoming someone new.
They're about coming home to who you already are, strengthening your self-trust, and building in ways that reflect what matters most to you.
That's where meaningful businesses, meaningful leadership, meaningful lives, and lasting legacies are built.
✨ Because doing what you love shouldn't just be possible. It should bring you profit, purpose, and joy, not as goals to chase, but as the result of building what matters most.

When You’re Forced to Let Go of What You Built
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, Bobbi Brinkman shares a deeply personal turning point: the moment she realized she could no longer continue the photography career she had spent over four decades building, and the unfolding reality of navigating life and work with Parkinson’s.
Rather than focusing on loss alone, Bobbi explores what happens when identity, purpose, and direction are disrupted — and how being forced to let go can lead to a different, more grounded way of living and leading.
She reflects on the quiet grief of stepping away from something you love, the uncertainty that follows, and the challenge of redefining your role when life changes the plan.
This conversation offers a powerful reframe: you don’t lose your purpose — you lose the way you once expressed it. And from that place, something new can begin to take shape.
If you’re facing an unexpected transition, navigating a season of change, or questioning what comes next, this episode is an invitation to pause, reconnect, and begin again from where you are now.
This episode marks a more personal layer of the Be Fabbo Podcast — where real life meets the work of building what matters most.
