About me
Hello Babes
I’m Alex Frnka, your host, fellow book lover, and the voice behind Babes in Bookland. What started as a passion for memoirs has grown into a heartfelt podcast celebrating the voices, triumphs, and truths of women from all walks of life.


“Women must turn to one another for stories. They must share the stories of their lives and their hopes and the unacceptable fantasies… to put it simply, we must begin to tell the truth… to one another.”
– Carolyn Heilbrun

My Mission
To amplify women’s voices, one memoir at a time.
Through thoughtful conversations and genuine curiosity, I aim to create a space where stories are not just read — they’re felt. Memoirs have the power to connect us, challenge us, and remind us that we’re not alone in our experiences.
