Repeating frames
If you anchor the frame to the header, it will repeat on every page.
Note, however, that the content will be the same on every page. If you
need different content, you could put a blank frame in the header and
then use a specific text box on each page to insert the content.

I believe this may be the answer I need. But, I'm not entirely sure
what you are explaining.

My page layout:

Page 1
Header
Body text | Body text | Text box
Footer

Page 2
Header
Text box | Body text | Body text
Footer

The text inside the text box repeats from the previous odd/even page
because it's anchored into the odd/even alternating footer.

In your earlier post, you suggested to insert a blank frame in the
header then a specific text box on each page. By doing so, you can
enter new text in each new text box?!?

I'm not sure if you were saying to anchor the text box in the frame or
... I'm just lost at what to do...

Could you help?

I'm not sure what I was thinking here. The OP must have had some special
formatting for the frame that needed to be kept consistent, as that would be
the only reason for repeating an empty frame on every page. You can insert a
text box on a specific page with or without a frame anchored to the header;
the frame would just help with positioning; you'd need to be sure that the
text box was positioned relative to the page and anchored to a paragraph
that was sure to remain on that page.
